After a recent shoot for RBS' Burns night BDD I have learnt another hard lesson with my camera. It takes no prisoners in low light. I forgot to black balance, and I under exposed resulting in a muddy looking picture after colour correction. So written a list of steps I need to follow in order to not fall into that trap again:
1. Choose lens 2. Choose composition 3. Black balance 4. White balance 5. Check exposure; screen, waveform - minimal blacks, mid tones halfway, whites topping out - increase light not gain 6. Check focus; use focus card 7. Film grey card 8. Shoot! Simple steps that will make for much better footage - going to type this up and stick to camera.
