Those shouldn't be bad.. I prefer to use Yellow actually instead of Green. I find it gives me better color on
stage (After reading alot of threads on this site I'm sure someone's going to reem me here for saying that)
Its just that as alot of people know, Green tends to make people look dead in a sense. It doesn't bring out the best of skin tones. By all means the colors you selected will be alright and he is right, you are going to have a hard time getting a good Amber.. We have some
Theatre's here in Branson that actually use an Amber instead of the Green itself and it actually makes does pretty well when mixing some
ole 9
cell cycs..
It just boils down to the color tones you are going to try to achieve. If you can experiment with some different gels, like a light red and/or a sky blue and/or magenta and/or primary blues and reds it might be beneficial for you. But if you don't really care too much about it. The colors you have chosen should be just fine. Just there are some directors out there that are pretty demanding in their color schemes which is perfectly understandable, just sometimes it can be a pain in the
butt when it comes to
RGB mixing of
Cyc's.
EDIT: You can actually get the most color combinations out of your mixing if you choose to do
CMY.. But I don't know very many people that use
CMY for their
Cyc's, especially here in town. Im an
RGB man myself, but I think that comes from my heavy interest when I was younger with web development and web based graphics.
