I built a little rolling light boom for simple outdoor night shots, but I’m wondering what would be a general wattage to equp it with for illuminating a two-shot area (nothing fancy or all that big) from like 12 above/over and maybe 6 feet back out of frame (if I don’t boom over)?
I’ll be using halogen work lights and have 500 watts on it now, but I haven’t had a chance to test it yet.
From your experiences do you think more like 1k will be the ticket? Or more, or would the 500 maybe be do’able (For video)?
-Thanks-
