The lighting though extremely important like in an production, has less relevance in my teaser trailer. My lighting success is going to to be left up to luck an careful planing. Even then the lighting can still go all wrong. This i due to the fact that most of my teaser trailer will be filmed outside. Due to this fact lighting is less in my control it just means im going to have to drop everything and just film when the moment arises and the sun decides to come out.
If this plan doesn't work then the footage i take will just have t go trough a very comprehensive editing process were i will need to spend time tinkering with the brightness, contrast and exposure in the hope of improving the lighting to the clips. Below is an image i have taken through this process.
All of the Norfolk location filming i do i want the colour to appear bright, saturated and with i slight over exposed feel. The London filming will have bright aspect but some bits will definitely be considerately darker, this is very important to me so i can create a contrast in the sections of the trailer.

Good, you could also have used a reflector for outside filming, or the lighting rig with an extension.
