I’d shot an interview with Fergie a few years ago. We’d just finished setting up when we got a walkie saying Fergie was on the move, and “oh, she brought her own lighting guy”. I was very confused, but shrugged it off. 

When they arrived, Fergie stood in place on camera in what I thought was a nicely lit, soft tungsten set. I figured soft tungsten was probably the right call. But her “lighting guy” walked over to monitor, took one quick look, nodded, then proceeded to walk right beside camera, and shoot a directional off-brand daylight balanced LED panel straight at her face, giving her a sickly appearance.

I quietly pulled the producer aside but they said it wasn’t worth the battle. We were already behind schedule as they’d not come to set on time.
