The photographers came in on Wednesday and talked us through how to capture a photo or film by using the correct lighting. They showed us how to use all of the equipment and all the different sort of effects we could achieve through using different light, aperature settings, animating light and filters. We were left to test the shots ourselves and decide what we thought was best in capturing certain elements of the room.
In the study we used a small light coming through the window and another small light from above with gauze filters, a larger light with a black gel on it was shone through the doorway. The lights bounced off the desk and the edge of the chaise lounge and onto the back wall where the screen was made visible. This gave it a really eerie look, exactly the look we wanted to achieve.
The drawing room was light by a light coming through each window with pink and orange gels on them to create a sunset mood. A light with gauze was positioned on the ceiling as was another one by the door, this was to act like a chandelier. The overall mood of the room with shadows cast gave a dreamy, calm, warm feeling, a great contrast to the cold, dark, uncomfortable feeling from the study.
