Re: Will a blue sheet change color temp?
I think you'll find that blue cloth with cut so much light that it'll be almost useless. Just spend a little money on CTB gels and you're on the right track.

Re: Will a blue sheet change color temp?
Ok, thanks for the advice. The reason I wanted to use blue was to have a large surface area to put the light on, but I suppose gelling the light with blue, before it even hits the fabric would work too right? The main purpose here is to have a large diffused source of light. I am also going to spray the cloth with fire retardent.

I've been known to put the gel directly on the front of a softbox. Clip it right to the diffusion panel. It'll eat a lot of light, but you can get a nice effect this way.

Ok cool. How much are gels, and what quantity do they come in? rolls, sheets? Also, how much is diffusion paper? I also have one of those cheapo clamp lights that uses like a 100 watt regular bulb, or flourescent bulb, do you think I would have trouble with mounting diffusion and/or gels directly on the front of it when using those low wattages?
