Do you think with improvements t= o trackers that points are needed and if so, is a very thin cross (to minimi= ze filling in the reflection map) good enough? Much of the lighting will be l= ow key or night lighting. Will be shoot with C300.

 

Probably will be using AE and/o= r AE Mocha=E2=80=99s trackers. No hand held =E2=80=93 all dolly/jib and occa= sionally lockoff.
