Hello everyone!
I am the set designer for a production that is being filmed instead of performed live due to COVID restrictions. I'm planning on painting part of the set a really dark green or blue, and after an incident last year in which we ended up with a BRIGHT blue floor, I am really concerned about choosing a color that will look good both with the wash and on film.
I tested out a bunch of colors with the wash tonight, and all of them looked great, but when we took photos from different angles with a DSLR, they were totally different based on where the camera was. Because we're not shooting straight on, I'm not entirely sure how to approach this. I don't have any film experience, so this is totally out of my comfort zone.
Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with this? Alternatively, if anyone has any idea about the color rendering index of source 4s, that'd be much appreciated.
Thanks!
