Hi guys-- a complete newbie to this side of things (= help!! please!!).. can anyone recommend a good place for buying lighting gels (preferably 2nd hand-- we're on a really tight budget), or does anyone out there have any they might like to sell? Thanks B

Alternatively, for about $3

Alternatively, for about $3 each, you can buy a book of sample gels. Rosco, etc, all sell these books and will help you decide what you need and how the gels will look through the lights. You might want to consider investing in some gels. I bought a few sheets of a blue, a few of an orange, and a few cyc colours (red, green) several years ago. As a 'fringe' and freelance lighting designer, I've found it handy to have some spare gels around me when I need it.
