When you are limited to the amount of equipment at
hand, first rule change the camera angle, this will
change the reflectance on your panel, I would raise
camera up this probably will correct the reflection,
Black is never easy to shoot, if you put too much
light on it it goes gray, too little and it
dissappears, catch 22, Photoshop can cure just about
anything, if you have the time and knowledge to use
it, I was trained the old way before Sci-tex and
photoshop, shoot it right and you dont need to
retouch. The art directors like this method, client
saves much money on retouching af course the art
director has to do sme retouching on the job so theat
the client thinks they are getting what they pay for
from the Art director, you know it is a control
thing...
