I’m not a director, just an amateur with some pretty good equipment.
Do I want to do this work? LOL
NO, but I get talked into things sometimes, that require workarounds.
This particular situation is some gratis videos for non-profit org.
Greenscreen and white sheet is out, just can’t setup in enough situations to mess with it.
I can do some lighting tweaks with reflectors and such, but otherwise outdoor natural sunlight is it.
I just have to compensate for light direction and shadows in videos.
Basically, I’m looking at making waist up shoot of talent to minimize editing.
Currently I own the vegas 8 pro, I’m not sure I can get access to After Effects. I have a friend with the full Adobe CS4 package, which might include it.
I appreciate the responses very much. They are a help.
