There is another idea you could rent some bowens for when you need some pro lighting, lauritas local and I know she's got some but this ties into one of my other ideas I was going to talk to you about.

For stills I tend to use 2 SB-800 flashes on stands with brollies, these work very well balanced with ambient.

I don't usually use lighting for video, but if I did it would be a work light reflected off polystyrene sheeting or other reflective surface.

[quote] I would also think it very unlikely that many people are still using film either as a stills or moving medium, so the problem of poor colour balance shouldn't be a hit and miss affair as a glance at the screen will show.[/quote]

I mean film as in video - i should have known it was a mistake to post cos if you make the slightest typo someone there to tell ya...

I'll stick to just posting photo's of my shoots in future...
