Chud color/lighting testing

[leavenostoneunturnedblr-blog]

This test I decided to take the lighting from behind the camera that was fixed to the raft and make a new raft for the lights to sit in front of the raft. I had some left over polystyrene, so I cut a slot for the battery to be firmly sat in the middle so the weight was evenly distributed. I then rewired the lights and attached the two rafts together with fishing line. This was so that the lighting was always at an equal distance throughout the shot.

I found that the outcome of the video was much lighter than previous and didn't look so flat. This happened by simply changing the directions of the light from straight down the tunnel to up straight up. What I am going to try next is create a back board/flag for the light raft. It will make the lights distribute the light out and up rather than up and back to the camera. It will hide the raft so you won't be able to see it. I'm thinking of adding tin foil to the inside of the flag to give rebound the light harder.
