Singer Guitarist Shoot
by Colin Wiencek on May 29, 2008 at 1:06:34 am

So I am shooting a live performance of a singer/guitarist in studio and I was wondering how you guys would light it. The music is acoustic, folk, rock and many of the songs are downbeat. I have several ideas that I think will create interesting effects.

My first way will be to give him a hot key light of maybe 600 watts, then give him a medium back light gelled orange at 400 watts, then give him a slight fill at maybe 100 watts. Then on the back I will have a black syc that is stretched tight with a light from a pidgin on a plate shooting up giving a stretch of light.

Then my second way is to top light him with a leko of 750 watts gelled orange then give his face a kick with a direct from light of 400 watts. Background would either be the same or a green screen background of a similar idea.

How would you like it to be creative and yet simple?

-Colin
