I am concerned with giving my movie that film look, and to be certain <strong>I wanted to know everyone's opinion on all the details of the film.</strong> I will be using a 12ft kessler crane, 50ft. track run from kesslercranes.com, and a 20 ft. green screen.</p> <p>We start shooting on Tuesday, so I might just be getting the pre-shoot nerves, but if there are lighting suggestions that would help my film look more eery please let me know. One of my major concerns is our <em>Campfire scene, </em>real fire is almost impossible to control (especially with my budget). I am looking for consistant footcandle and f-stop readings, and at the same time I want the flickering light that fire gives off in real life.<em> </em><strong>How do I recreate that?</strong><em> </em>I plan on using tight shots on the actors around the fire intertweened with far shots off the flex track around the campfire scene (circular track run for this set-up, obviously). I already ordered a roll of CTB to give the key light a moon light look, and even highered a make-up artist. For right now we are using all MAC make-up, but are ordering the lacerations, wax, etc. soon. <strong>Additionally, anyone know where the best Hollywood special effects make-up is?</strong></p>
