I just need something simple. Something that will light each cell and a hallway, and a main room. will normal lights be sufficient enough light for a digital camera?

I'm shooting a 16 minute short in about a month and I'm building a mock-prison scene. I want simple lighting all from above, nothing too dramatic, any recommendations for lights to use? Thanks to anyone who can offer advice.

Not a bad idea. Thanks UC...

Not sure if that was the solution but it brought me a little closer...

I MIGHT have figured it out by selecting 'text' in the lower right hand corner of the viewer. We'll see.

Exactly...

With the use of Final Cut Studio, how would I make subtitles with white text with a black background? Not black outline but black background. Wish I had an example but I think I'm explaining it correctly.

I've been using Verbatim LightScribe DVD+R to burn DVD's and I'm about to purchase more. Any recommendations for a good lightscribe DVD that plays well in DVD players? Or should I stick with what I have? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

I do have zebra, and I do use it. My shots aren't that overexposed... sometimes I just wish I had the aperture closed a bit more. I shoot on the boat a lot and the lighting changes with the sun and clouds. Not too big of a deal.

Thanks knightly.

I guess I should have mentioned I was referring to post... I shoot often times outdoors in extreme conditions so not much time to reshoot :)

What's the best way to deal w overexposed shots? I usually adjust the levels (gain). I just wanted to see if anyone had a better method. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I think I'm going to look for a waterproof set of mics. I'm sure it will be pricey though...

Let's say I'm starting a clip at 50 fps and I want it to eventually be at 150 fps. Is there a way to gradually have it increase? Thanks to anyone who can help.

I'm looking for a set of mics to record dialogue as well as reel-noises on the boat, particularly the reel-noises. I was thinking some type of waterproof lavalier mics for two people and maybe one rigged in the cockpit? Any suggestions?

I'm using DVD Studio Pro and I'm trying to make a menu for the first time. I've learned how to link the buttons to different chapter markers, however I'm having difficulty adding the video above the buttons. I have the 15 minute video in one sequence, with about 8 chapter markers. I guess what...

sorry, forgot to mention i was using FCP.

Thanks. while I have you here... I'm adding a about 4 or 5 lines of txt and I guess I need "word wrap" because it's all in one line stretching off of the screen???

I have a fishing video and I'm trying to focus attention on a fish jumping in the distance. I'm trying to dim everything accept for a small circle where the fish jumps. Any ideas on how to get this done? Thanks.
