Thank you all for the input on this matter, I truly appreciate it. I am going for a fairly low key look. Light motivated from the lamps on either side of bed. Shot of someone on the bed. And a separate setup of someone sitting in the chair in the corner(the lamp behind chair will be moved). Practicals could be in shot, but we don't want them to blow out Thanks!

Here's a link to pictures of the hotel room from one side and the reverse angle. Hotel Pics The scene takes place at night. I'd like to light it as if it were by lamps in the room. Again, I have two 300s and two 150s, as well as a 650 Omni. I also have Divas but I think they would be too soft. So my questions are: 1) Does it look possible to shoot a wideshot of the whole room? That is, is there anywhere to hide lights? 2) What would be the best way to light one wideshot of the bed and one wideshot of the chair, as if lit by the lamps in the room?

Hi, I am making a short student film and we are trying to figure out the best way to film a hotel and a restaurant. We are working with small lights. We have two Arri 300s, two Arri 150s, two Diva 200s, and a Lowel Omni (I believe it is a 650). The hotel has dark hallways and is a simple hotel room. For the restaurant we are looking to light from above as if we have a light hanging down but we have no way of hanging a light down. The scenes are of simple dialogue and awkwardness between a mother, her son, and his girlfriend. Let me know what you think. Any ideas would help a lot. Thanks
