Recommended gels

[kat.hayes]

What types of gels would you recommend for the following lighting situations:

- creating a sense of fear and horror
- lighting a model that may wear only a bathing suit

Thanks.

I think alot of that would depend on where you plan on shooting, I.E. indoors or outdoors and what your primary light source would be.

But I also think that, bear in mind, that in both cases it's not exactly the gels that are going to make the image but rather the type and quality of the light.

For the model I would think you would want a soft light and not as much contrast.

For the fear and horror one I would think you would want to go with a lot harsher of lights with heavy contrast.

Good luck. I hope that helped somewhat.
