I'm in the process of having an addition put on my home. The bottom level, contiguous with a walkout basement, is a 16' x 22' audio/video studio (the walls are brick and cinderblock so inner dimensions 14' x 21' x 8' 6" high). Primarily, I'm going to be shooting a weekly show, likely with the Panasonic GH4 and Atomos Ninja 2 , with the camera at one end, one or two people sitting at a desk talking, and a green screen wall in the background - with keying and final production done in Adobe Master Suite CS6, with After Effects for keying..
I'm trying to figure out what to do for lighting. Have been planning on using 3 floor lights (side, fill, and hair) for the talent and two separate lights for the green screen, I'm happy to follow some DIY videos and make my own soft boxes to keep costs down.
I'm doing a de-coupled ceiling to minimize sound leakage from and to our sun-room which will sit above the studio. Trying to minimize any intrusions into the ceiling. Someone from the soundproofing company had mentioned LED lights, which is how I happened upon lppenergy (had never heard of the site or the company before this. The rep I spoke to recommended four of these LED lights for the ceiling (72 Watts) - each panel is about $365. http://lppenergy.com/led-low-bay/54-led-low-bay-apollo
Would welcome any suggestions on lighting (both for free-standing lights and ceiling lights) weekly or more frequent hour long interviews against green screen as primary use. Also welcome advice on camera and external recording devices. All of this is pretty new to me.
Thanks.
