Lincoln movie - Facelight


Recommended Posts


Learnt from the films featurette that the location they used for shooting the House of Representatives did not allow them to rig lights inside, everything was lit from the windows.
How do you think is the face-light done here?

 

Love the lensing used here for the face and how the background is constructed with the higher floor(Lincolns wife is sitting there, there is an exchange of look between the two characters in this scene)

They could also projected a hard light across the room from a window and then put a diffusion frame just off camera for his face. And if they were allowed cameras in the room then they were allowed diffusion frames and if they were allowed diffusion frames and bounce cards, they were allowed small lights.
