Re: Lighting a hallway for a night shoot. With no natural light source (IE no windows for moonlight)

Hey, thank you all for your comments. It has helped. Unfortunately there is not an opportunity for a practicle here but the fog is a great idea to disperse the light I will use. Looking at the hallway I do beleive we may be able to exploit the moonlight from the door ( has a few glass panes ) but it is a long hallway. Any options for light near the far end of the hallway im still pondering. I have one simple idea, let me know what you think...

A soft light coming from nowhere inparticular, using diffusion and the fog to acheive this for the far end of the hallway.

For info, the actors do stop briefly and talk at this part of the hallway, and I am shooting HD not film.

Also, the dolly tracks down the hallway in both directions at different points in the film.

This is an ambitious but low budget film... I am very confident in it but some of the more expensive solutions may not be feasible.

Thank you all for your help :) Have a great weekend.
