My fear is that the indoor light will not be enough against the sunlight. I’m not sure I can do a test before the day of the shoot, but I can program the time so the shooting late in the day when the sun is going low.
Thanks, Mark.

Sounds like you need to track the screen of the iPad, then apply the tracking info to a solid, then precompose. Then you add and animate your content in the precomp.
I hope this helps.

The best one you can afford. Avoid putting a cheap piece of glass in front of your fine lens.

You can get a good set of ND filters.

Since the tongue is a flexible muscle you are probably gonna have to fix the perspective of your logo from frame to frame. But sounds very doable.
Let us know what method worked best for you.

You can try doing some reverse motion tracking. Here’s a tutorial on it: https://www.videocopilot.net/tutorial/demon_face_warp/
Also, you can try using Mocha to track the tongue in 2D.
Haven’t seen your footage is hard to say, I hope this helps

I have a “fine print” addendum in my budget format to specify things like this.
It’s not a contract, but when a client fall into something that’s specified there, I nicely say: “This could mean an extra charge as it’s specified in the budget I sent you. What do you think it’s the best way to proceed?”
Usually the client stops making silly changes or, in the case of a cancellation, may agree to pay a fraction of the budgeted price, at least to cover the external fees like location price, makeup artist or the actors.
I hope this helps.

All neutral at center. In the vimeo link I shared the creator of the curve says that he uses sRGB curve with -1 saturation. I had adobeRGB with 0 sat and worked fine for me, but you may do some tests and adjust the spects to fit your personal taste.

It has almost everything at neutral 0 (I don’t have the camera with me), but the color curve was made inside the Nikon software and can’t be replicated with the camera controls (you need to recreate it in your PC).
I think Nikon don’t include a real superflat option to avoid noise and washed blacks.
I hope this helps

I own a D7000, but this may help.
I always use manual mode. Shoot a still to check exposure with the histogram, then change to live view, then shoot the video.
To adjust your exposure in very bright light (the sun) and keep the 1/60 speed try using an ND filter so you can get a shallow deep of field when needed.
It’s reccomended to shoot with a flat mode and fix any color and contrast in post. Here’s the mode I use: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/30153818/TassinFlat%2BLUT.zip
The camera has some limitation, just remember it’s not a camcorder. I hope this helps.
