  filming inside a shopping mall

  Posted by Ali Quintana on June 10, 2016 at 10:23 pm

  I have been approached to film inside a Mall, basically to promote the shopping mall itself.

  There are all type of different lights and colors, it is so big, to set up a prof light set would seem hard to do,
  specially because we need to move around so much.

  Anny suggestions? I am really worried about the white balance. I also believe at night would be better maybe a there
  is a roof of glass.

  One of the cameras of choice would be the Sony A7 with the ninja assassin (to be able to film 4K raw). This cam
  should be great for low lights. How ever I never used it as yet myself.

  Anny suggestions are really welcome.

  I shot video of a local comic book convention last week. I did it for my own enjoyment so I didn’t have any pressure to produce a professional product, but I had the same situation as you. Some hallways were lit by sunlight from a wall of windows, some by fluorescent lights, some by incandescent lights and the main lobby by a skylight.

  I just shot each section separately, adjusting white balance for each area. I don’t know if that helps you, but maybe it will spark another idea.
