I was wondering if I somebody could give me some tips pertaining to inserting background images. Whenever I've done exterior shots I've just imported a large jpeg and place it behind the building. However this technique never fares very well when I try to do interior scenes. Since I have to turn the EV down to accommodate the interior scene the exterior becomes a blazing white void (like in the 1st image below). However you can see the background reflects perfectly on the TV screen.
Bright white background in quick render (notice the TV reflection): https://www.dropbox.com/s/vfxxyhpz1ge7m ... 20room.png
How the shot has been set up: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9niqvgqr6938a ... 20room.png
I've turned the sun intensity down considerably (to 0.08) and the EV is 5, any higher and the scene is too dark.
Could somebody tell me how I could improve my backgrounds? Or is the method I've been using too cumbersome and counter productive?
Many thanks
