Explain to me this, Larry. Why go to the trouble of taking a fluorescent light, already with a green cast, purposely adding a green gel to it making the scene *very* green, taking shots, then using post-processing to remove all that at least half intentional colour-casting?
Just to see if it can be done? :-) Why not simply use straight un-gelled light to begin with? Or if the gel is there, presumably the colour cast is intended, so why not render the scene as the participants observed?
