Hey everybody,
I have to shoot a scene that simulates the interior of a surveillance van, like in spy movies where there's always that guy keeping an eye on things from the outside. Anyway, my plan was to rent a box truck for a day (it's a no budget film and we only need the scene for 30 seconds at most all from one camera angle at the very end of the truck) and putting a table in it. Then, place a small work light overhead as a van light. I plan to place a couple of computer monitors on the table (not actually for any use). Then put a light source tinted green behind the monitors to make it seem as the monitors were casting a green light on things.
Any ideas or better ways? (i'm mostly looking for a better way)
Thanks,
Joe
