			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I actually like the reflections on LEGO minifigures and the walls.  That's what LEGO does, so it looks nice.

The only problem with it is when it reflects you.
To deal with this, I just duck down every time I take a frame so that I will never appear in the reflections and thus shall not look inconsistent from frame to frame.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[If it's the minifigure's reflection, it's not a big deal. That's normal.
Now, if it's something that will change frame-to-frame or break the fourth wall, then you've got a problem.
(Be it the computer screen, you, the camera, something else.)

But if it's only reflecting the minifigs or other walls and things, you're fine. And there's not much you can do about it.
Perhaps reducing the amount of light, and then turning up the exposure to compensate? I don't know.

I kinda like contained reflections, as it seems like a more real world, and if it's reflecting the set, it feels less two-walled set-like and more real complete room/location like. So I've never tried to get rid of them.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Hey guys. Whenever I film a shot with new bricks (which is a large portion of my collection) I can see my minifigures reflection and looks very amateur. I use a canon t4i with 2-4 regular florescent lamps. Any advice is much appreciated :)
