I shoot interviews for the veteran's history project (via the Women's Memorial oral history program) and have to shoot with whatever light I find because every setting is different. Overhead light only is common and of course, is awful. I've been struggling to find a fill-light solution that works for interviews that run perhaps as long as an hour. Lighting needs to be soft--and the china ball is ideal. Great information, especially about the china ball.

I could talk about my opinions on this for quite a while..." Good article, any man who can swing a china ball is okay in my book - but now I'm intrigued to hear your thoughts on how our lovely new cameras are changing lighting styles. More, please!

I highly recommend China balls and Reveal bulbs as you suggest. If you check out my video on the "vision" page on my website you can see just that set-up in action. We shot the interview portions in a church with backlight coming through three huge stainglass windows. The China ball was our one and only keylight. Special thanks to David Grauberger, of course, for all that. Good advice. I highly recommend China balls and Reveal bulbs as you suggest.
