I wasn't sure where to post this question, so I thought I'd put it here, since classic film enthusiasts might have a better understanding of the techniques of film photography.
Does anyone here know how exposure works in moving picture photography? What I'm wondering about is how one handles shutter speeds in moving-picture cinematography. If I take a still picture in low light, for example, I might have to adjust a shutter speed to be 1/30 or 1/15 of a second. So, in a medium where one needs a constant 24 frames per second, how is exposure compensated for? It can't be with shutter speed or aperture, so how does exposure work?
