I finally finished editing the opening sequence. I wanted to speed it up a bit …so is 25 edits in 20 seconds fast enough?

So what do you do when your lead actress gets Mumps half way through filming?

filming with new fluorescent lighting
On May - 30 - 2010
I was helping to light a short drama on Saturday and thought I would try out some new low cost fluorescent lighting.
I recently bought two 120watt fluorescent daylight bulbs (equivalent to 500 watts of conventional lighting). So amost equivalent to a 800 watt redhead with a full blue correction filter on it.
I got them with umbrella reflectors. They worked well. Matched daylight well. But as I often am using lighting from behind the subject towards the camera then they tend to flare a bit. …and the light is a bit uncontollable. BUT the two lamps and stands and reflector umbrella were only about £60.

The other thing that worked well was using one of my led lights taped above the lens as a catchlight for the eyes.
