I did a film noir project not too long ago and I created some great moody techniques with my Shadowfoils kit. Those deep shadows created great background patterns that really added to the moodiness. You should be able to use that same cucoloris pattern to enhance a horror scene. Check out shadowfoils.com

I did a film noir style of project not too long ago and I found that I could create some great looks with background shadows. I made a lot of great cucoloris effects with my Shadowfoils kit. Background breakup patterns and all of those deep shadows really made a difference.

OK, I shoot for a company that keeps me flying around the country doing interviews and I always need something to break up the background. I'm lighting with my arri kit and a couple of peppers that I still hold on to for little accents here and there. In the home studio I use the cookies on set but they are too big to travel with since I am allowed only what will fit in the arri case. What can I do to make these blank backgrounds more interesting when I don't have my kook?
