Our Lighting Equipment (Planning)

Since we were indoors it is expected that the camera quality won't be as good as it won't if we filmed outside during the day. We had to use different lights throughout our sequence to keep the set well lit and be able to convey a sci-fi looks with filters in front of those lights.


The first light we will use is a 1000watt twin halogen worklight. This is our main light source to make our silhouette. We wouldn't be able to make the silhouette look as sharp as possible without this light, the power of this light is also supposed to resemble the light source from something like a spaceship so it will need to be powerful to be able to denote one.

The next light we will use is an LED light. This little but powerful light is great for placing it anywhere in a scene unnoticed as it is portable but also can you change it brightness to get the lighting you want.








The next light we will use is a standard table lamp. We did adjust this light  by attaching blue shades with duct tape. we did this to make the scene look more blue to add  a sci-fi theme to the scene.

The next light we will use is a clamp light. Finding a place to position the light where they would be is difficult but if the lamp can clamp onto object it makes it much easier. We also adjusted the light similarly to the table lamp by adding blue shades to this light as well.

 

The last light we used was a torch which was also a prop. We used this light for the character to interact with and as the character moved around the setting would sometimes point it at the camera to make this lens flare.
