Re: Shooting Fireworks
by Oscar Deflorez on Jan 18, 2008 at 4:04:53 am

Admittedly, I have not filmed fireworks as of yet (seems I'll have to now :), but just the logistics of it don't make sense IMO to place an orange filter on an environment that has no daylight whatsoever. I just can't see how a big splash of green and red across the sky is considered blue light (daylight). I have however taken photographs of a crowd during fireworks, using daylight film, no flash and under the light of the fireworks, the crowd rendered on the warm side.
And I guess the truth is, when you watched the footage after you filmed in either 32k or 56k, no one would really know that the colours were rendered correctly I guess anyways. The fireworks will just be off on one side of the spectrum or the other and no one would ever know. The only time I think it would make a difference and be apparent is during crowd shots as I said, where they are being lit by the fireworks displays themselves or by street lamps close by. Anyone else have thoughts on this..or am I the only one in support of a 32k filter for fireworks.
