Screen Grabs - Interrogation Room

Below are photos i have taken from inside workstation where we constructed our set involving a total of 5 Dedo lamps and a 2 camera setup. 

 To the right we used a Dedo to light the detectives right shoulder, however the majority of the light lighting him comes from the suspended Dedo and left Dedo see Fig2

Fig2 To the left notice two Dedo lights the Dedo closer to the camera at the bottom of the screen is lighting the side of the detective much like in Ridley Scott's 'Blade Runner'. Also note that we used a two camera setup in this scene to reduce the amount of takes, cleverly we kept the cameras crashed in alternating between both a 35mm and 50mm lens cropping out any lamps or tripods. 

As you can see this is the outcome of the lighting setup, I felt that positioning the Dedos in front of the detective rather than on him allow him to lean in and out of the light I told the actor to lean forward when he felt necessary or whenever the dialogue got more intense. The light above helps to highlight the evidence bag in his hand before dropped in front of Brad cueing the lighting change. 

 This is the Dedo suspended from the lighting rail above the desk, for this i placed 2 blue filters as i felt the intense blue would mot only signify Brads innocence but alos the previously mentioned uncomfortableness of the scene.

 This is a shot that was used from my storyboard that i composed and filmed during this scene. I have kept Brads shoulder to the right of the shot giving the detective room relinquishing any pressure on his behalve. The table nicely slips away into a unplanned vignetting, with the table heavily lit from the top light much like in the scene i analysed from 'American Beauty', the light source above is never revealed however plays a strong role in setting the tense tone for the scene therefore un challenged. 

For the shot where the detective throws the evidence bag on the table i kept my shot similar the this one only raising the tripod so gain a better view of the table and frame a slightly larger proportion of the table. 

Robin on the right set up the opposing reverse shot that would be used in conjunction to my shot, we both delegated our shot setup so that both shots would complement the other and not look out of place when cut together, we both agreed that the shot of Brad would be closer to build upon the already uncomfortableness Brad would be feeling.
