behind the scenes: how to shape rainy moonlight in a forest scene. 🌲@samwordsworth_dop

@samwordsworth_dop Sam Wordsworth and his talented crew share a simple, clean, and repeatable approach to creating the moonlight they needed: an #evoke2400b with the PJ-NLM-15-30 projection attachment, combined with a LightBridge reflector mounted in the trees.

A simple set with a huge impact.

By bouncing the light instead of hitting the talent directly, they were able to:
• Maintain the directional quality of moonlight while keeping it natural
• Create smoother transitions between highlights and shadows
• Achieve precise control over exposure and the overall mood

This is the art of lighting the environment first, allowing the surroundings to support the actor, and using light to write the story before the character even appears.

Here’s a recent project we did with @maybemediahq for @letour_gb. We had to create a black box inside a velodrome to capture a ‘drive to survive’ style interview. Our best friend was the @thelightbridge CRLS 100cm Gen 2 reflector giving us maximum distance for natural light falloff inside a small black box. Read our full lighting breakdown on our website - link in our bio.
