Hello,
I have a question on hard sources. What light would create the best hard source of sunlight? I am shooting a student film and we want to pump in hot sunlight through these two windows of a house. Right now we have two 4k HMI fresnals and I was wondering if that is "punchy" enough to give the right look. Would it be better to go with a par light with a spot lens?
Also in terms of exposure I'd like the light to be blown out (noon sunlight) so I was originally thinking of letting it go 4 stops over. I saw some work in class that a fellow student shot and he explained he had let the light blow out and it looked very nice.
My concern is we tested out the new vision 3 250 and I noticed at 3 stops it started going white and at 4 it really went to crap. On kodaks test their was detail 6 stops over, however it was a mini dv transfer so I don't think I was getting the full latitude of the stock.
