I preface this question with "I looked through past posts", but I wanted a little more info.

I am about to buy the chrosziel matte box and follow focus, and I was wanting to know what filters (the 4x4 size) I should get for a basic kit. I am getting .3, .6, .9 ND filters, and a linear polarizer, but I would like to know what else I need. I am looking at getting some color correcting filters ( basic cooling and warming) since I have tungsten lights. What do you guys suggest?

I would be using these filters on anything from short films to commercials to music videos to corporate videos. Thanks for your help.

-UV Haze
-Polarizer
-Low Contrast
-1/2 Black Supermist
-#1 Clear Supermist
-#2 Black Net
