Storyboards

Taking inspiration from 'Balde Runner' for my scene in terms of lighting, I feel that the way in in which the DOP had chosen to highlight the edge of the character and leave the majority of them under lit in certain scenes works well as it suggests a feeling of uncertainty again a strong idea that must be conveyed in this scene i've storyboarded. 

Also taking inspiration from the scene in 'American Beauty' which i have previously analysed where by we see Lester fall into a fantasy revolving around the girl in the cheerleader team. The scene becomes highly stylised by the lighting and so i would very mimic like to replicate this notion of the spot light over either the character of Brad or over the wallet once its thrown onto the table. 

Below is a lighting change that I drew up with the recent addition of the lighting rail which was used in a session prior to our shoot, as you can see the lighting rail sits above the interrogation table with a singular Dedo light fixed in the centre. This addition to the already drawn up lighting  plan has aided my idea to spot light the wallet as its thrown onto the table as part of evidence against Brad (suspect).

In terms of lighting gels I planned to use either green or blue for this specific scene as it introduces a strong amount of negativity and awkwardness drawing away from the red which would seem too warm for thus scene despite its conventional use as both anger and lust its not entirely fitting. The use of blue filters in our film will help to suggest the uncomfortable feeling that Brad is dealing with as his patience is tested by the detective. The tone of blue draws naturally away from the inviting mood warm colours reflect, the blue is used by investigative films and television programes as it connotes the idea of being examined like a piece of evidence in a lab, also creating a grittier look, subsequently leading the audience to believe that their is something wrong either preparing for a narrative twist or simply that their is anxiety within the scene.

* Please note that the lights labeled 'kino' are in fact Dedo lights, pleas excuse this labeling error.
