    Great content, gave me some ideas. I'd also like to know how to prevent banding and artifacting in dimmly light places. I never figured out how to prevent these in-camera. I know that those things have to do with codecs and compression, but I know how to correct those. Just having a pitch black background without artifacting would be a great thing. Also what about lighting paint (e.g black ) without having a specular of the light?

Best of luck bro. (shameless plug below) I also have an ebook available for download that goes over beginner video lighting. Ask and you shall receive.
