Lighting Plans

We want to create a "creepy" effect as though it is in a dark, dirty, underground room in the morning. As we are shooting our sequence in the studio, we can have many lighting effects. We chose to use this lighting plan because we feel the side lighting and back lighting would give a sense of mystery and tension. The spotlight on the stool would highlight the importance of the stool and to focus on the action. We also decided we want to have a smoke machine to give an effect of early morning fog and create mystery and atmosphere. Overall, we want the lighting to be low key throughout the sequence. This is because we want to have an atmospheric and tense feeling throughout the sequence to reinforce the horror genre and to create suspense.
