Hello,
This is my first post in this forum. I was not even aware of this forum till I saw a for sale post on FM. This looks like a great resource of information.
I am building my first home studio. I am lighting it with all Profoto D1 air lights as well as Profoto softboxes, beauty dish and reflectors. My room is roughly15x24 with 12-14 foot vaulted ceiling above where my subject/model is located. I have 2 windows, one left of model/subject north facing window, so no direct light ever. The second set of windows are a group of 3 windows (bay windows) which are located behind camera on the east side of the room (morning light).
I have ripped out the carpet and am now have done some test shots and like the results so far. Its nice I have 16-19 feet from subject/model who is 4-6 feet from background, to play with. I am now left with the decision what kind and color of flooring do I go with and what color do I paint the walls.
I am leaning to a medium/medium dark wood floor. As far as the walls I have heard 18% gray, just a plain white, a bright white.
Any suggestions.....??
Thanks...Don McPhee
