How do you organize your lighting gel collection?
Ross M asked:
I have recently purchased a large quantity of lighting gels for film and stage productions and am wondering how most people end up organizing them to keep them from scratching and deteriorating quickly. These are standard 21″ by 24″. Currently, the gels came in a large metal box of the same dimensions, but I fear they may deteriorate quicker and this, of course, is very cumbersome when searching through to find particular colors, as 300+ gels stacked on top of each other gets quite heavy.

What kind of lighting do you use with a cathedral ceiling?
natz asked:
My family room plans call for a cathedral -type ceiling that is flat in the center so it is easier to install lighting cans. I prefer cathedral ceilings that come to a peak. It seems more dramatic and there is no 2nd floor over the room anyway. What type of lighting do people typically use with cathedral ceilings?
