Location Scouting

As a group, we have decided that we may choose to use the Attenborough Hall as our main location to film our performance shots. We want to blackout the hall and use studio lights to creatively light our subjects. We are able to create the darkness in the hall as it has black out curtains.

Planning for 4th nov

We want to test out some ideas in the Hall, especially backlighting.
Equipment -
2 Large studio lights
camera

Using the same setup that is showed in this video.

Paul Cripps

Today we had a talk from Paul Cripps, a production designer that has worked on many high profile television dramas, such as Skins and Bones. He gave us specific advice on how to make our shots look as professional as possible. He said that we should backlight the actors during our campfire shots as we want to make sure we don't have light fall off from the front of the actors face to the back.
