Hi everyone. Well, we are at a scene in our movie, which takes place at night. We need lighting pretty bad, and we are by a creek, so there are no nearby outlets. I was just curious to where I can get some cheap good looking lights that can depict the moon. If not, is there any way which colors can be tinted so a normal light can look bluish? Or...Can a night scene be filmed, and in Premiere can I be manipulated to where it is brighter, while keeping it's good quality? By the way, I own a GL-2, so any advice would help me out a lot alot. Thanks Dave

If push comes to shove, just shoot day-for-night (shoot during the day and darken it in post). I do that quite a bit and it works like a charm, especially if you're going for that moonlight effect.

you can buy battery powered hallogen lights (i think) and florecent lights.

if you want a blue look you can set the white balence to blue or put blue seram wrap over the lights.

day for night in post production is also an option
