Information that may be useful

I found some information on reflectors. I came across this video on YouTube that may be useful, the video shows how you can easily make a reflector using some tin foil and some cardboard.This could be useful if we can't rent one. Also you can really see the difference that the reflector makes in the video. I also found out that reflectors are mainly used in photography, as they created the illusion of direct light onto the face which creates a soft focus which is mainly wanted in the use of photography, however this is also a good reason for why we want to use one for our short film, as we are using black and white we don't want any harsh bright light on the characters faces, so by using the reflector we can use natural light to create a soft focus on both the characters faces.
