Lighting Plan

For the lighting plan in our music video we have decided to use a bit of the flood light we are bringing with us to the arts centre and the lights provided by the arts centre near the roof in the ball room. A picture of both the flood light and the standard lights we used provided by the arts centre are shown below. To start of with we plan to make the ball room were we are filming as dark as possible. This means blocking out all possible natural light available. We did this by shutting two lots of curtains behind where we were performing. After this we decided to use the lights from the arts centre that lie above. We did not put the lights on full though as it would make the band's faces really light and pale. We also put the flood light on so that the only light in the room was concentrated on the band and the stage itself. After adjusting the lighting a bit we finally found the right mixture of lighting that allowed the sides of the stage to look fairly dark and all the main light to be on the band themselves without making their faces pale and too light.
