Hi every one,
I hope some of you can help me with the idea: i intend to shoot a news, MC stand and move front of touch video wall(hxw= 2 x3 meter). And i heard that light should n't put on Video wall.
How can i do the light?
PS: the height of lights is 3 meter. Thank you so much.
 
You can aim the lights down (from above) or from either side to avoid hitting the wall.

To really keep the light off the video wall, you'll have to avoid using lots of diffusion
or a softbox. Soften the shadows with fill instead.

Use your lights' barndoors to cut the light from the screen. You can get even sharper
cutoff using a flag farther from the light.

Try to avoid reflective floors and walls which can bounce the overhead and side lights
onto the screen.

Also note that most video projection devices have a very high color temperature,
often way above daylight. Go into the menu and try to adjust the color temperature down.
Or raise your lights' color temperature with gels. Or both.

Finally, adjust levels of your lights so that they balance well with the video.

Can you give me more detail about where i should set the Light(Key, back, fill), do i need follow Triangle principle,
I attached the drawing of my studio, which show position of camera, talent, video wall. The light was hang in I-Beam at 3meters height. I had ADB SP 10 1K for Key and Back light, SL 220 for Fill light, i also had WARP Profile Spot 0.8K for cut/off Lighting.
This is the very first project that i've work with lighting. So sory if i annoy with so basic question. Any detail and clear suggestion is very helpfull.
Again thank u so much.
