CINE SERVICE ■ 1771 E. 12th Cleveland, Ohio j bulbs and you will be well on your way to getting shots that will be the delight and envy of all your movie making friends. A speed lens and supersensitive film are of course almost a necessity, and if the light permits stopping down there will be a resultant added depth of field. For the benefit of those who really cannot afford a meter, I include my former pet lighting scheme for closeups. Have the subject sit about three feet from a bridge or table lamp, having replaced the regular bulb with a flood bulb. Place the lamp to one side and very slightly to the rear of the ear line of the face and also slightly above this line. Now put an unshaded flood bulb in an overhead light socket without using any reflector. If there is no socket, then the bulb and extension cord can be held by an assistant. In either case, the bulb should be about six feet from the face, slightly in front and high above. Last, use one more flood bulb (this one in a reflector) and turn it directly at the face from a point at eye level about six feet away. Use supersensitive panchromatic, open up to f/1.9 and shoot.
