I know this isn’t drone related but I know there’s lots of great film makers on here so I thought I’d at least ask.
I’ve done lots of outdoor videos and indoor photography but I now have a job where I am filming the inside of some office buildings.
I didn’t think it would be so difficult since, as I said, I have the experience outside with video and indoors with still photography but it has turned out to be a much different animal than I thought.
Basically my biggest issue is I can’t get enough light. I have three powerful LED arrays with defusers but in a large open building its like they aren’t doing anything. I honestly don’t think it would be enough if I had 10 more.
I am at ISO 500 1/60 shooting 30 FPS (30 FPS is what the client wants) and still I am still under exposed of where I’d like to be. I’m a bit of a perfectionist to be sure so I have this mental block about using higher ISOs and maybe that’s unfounded.
Any words of wisdom for me? Am I just being too **** about the using a higher ISO or getting the perfect exposure? I have some ability to buy new equipment/lighting but I am worried I’m gonna spend 5k on lighting and still not have enough.
Thanks,
