Subject: Some tips needed for an interior photoshoot

Hi there,
I am going to do a photoshoot for a magazine which involves photographing the interior of three nightclubs. I havent got that much experience doing interior shots. But this is how i plan to do the photoshoot. Bring a tripod accompanied with a wide angle lense. I thought it would be nice to make some beautifull panorama's, since then you can let the viewer view more of the interior. I think for the shoot i am going to use high f stop numbers. This, to make the image appear more sharper. Does anybody has some good advice on how to approach such a shoot? Am i going into the right direction with my strategy? Thanx for any help in advance!

take good lights. at least 2. and shoot the people... not all the camera. a mirror or something could let the viewer to see from ur room or bar whatever. but take at least 2 good lights. and an assistant to help u. :P good luck and let us see pictures when you do it

Actually lights depend on if this is a lifestyle (people) or interior architectural shoot. I use higher F-Stops and an ISO of 100-200 for my interiors.  These were interior architectural shoots though. And large spaces require more than a couple of good lights :) So expect long exposure times fro 3-8 seconds, blurred people etc.  Also use 2-3 exposure settings for each tripod shot. Many of the newer DSLR's have a built in "Bracketing" feature such as my Canon, which allows me to set up 3 exposure presets, and you click the shutter once, and it will take 3 shots in a row. Very handy! That way you can bracket the best of the bright versus dark. Attached is a sample:

Cheers! And good luck!
