Would have had a chance to play off the blues and oranges more.
 
Sweet. Look at the size of that China ball! Wow. And I thought we had balls! :)

BTW, That is a pretty healthy looking bar for a diner!!!

And if they didn't before, they will now!

They really do a great job!

Aram, did you use a special bulb in that China Ball? I know that Kevin used several China Balls on our set and the bulbs were special.
 
That China ball was actually Timurs, there was 400 watts in there i think. It wasnt strong enough for the Katrina shots and I had to break out a softbox for her to give her that nice soft natural look. It was strong enough for the fill on the guys though. I dont think we turned it off for any shots either.

The close up of the cup i used light shot through some liquer bottles that were on the wall to get that streaky green and orangy light. I used that technique on only one other shot but its a nice change of color in the frame. I kind of wished there was more time to get some gels out and test but we were on overdrive and lighting on the fly without much of a plan and it got pushed to the side. There are some nice glowy shots of Katrina I cant wait to see, got her hair to illuminate from the back in one shot that looked amazing..

Nice BTS stillies...

But really nice grabs. That SGpro is fresh. I usually don't pay attention to stills, these look pretty damned good man.

Cool. Thanks for that info.

I was enjoying that shot of the cup. The lighting really stood out for me. Nice.

As for the China Ball light, I know that Kevin (our DP) used some special temp lights that didn't have any subtle "flicker" or something like that. That's why I asked. I guess those bulbs are fairly pricey!

Thanks for the info. Great work... all of you!

Nice additional grabs, Mark.

Looking forward to more, guys!
