Sometimes the simplest setup can be the best.
For this scene, it was about singling out the two characters. Each one owns their own frame. Neither of them dirtys up the other's world. They stare directly at us, taking all our attention. Forcing us to listen to every word, and see every small change in facial expressions. Also, the more they stare into the lens the more unsettling it makes the audience feel (hopefully lol).
For the set up it was simple. Once we got the camera placed where we wanted it, we set up a 2ft 2bank Kino Flo mushroomed in a shower curtain right over the camera. Given the proximity of the light to talent, it gave them this slight bright highlight that got softer as it fell down his face. And given how far the wall was behind him, that same light gave us a slightly underexposed halo effect. To keep the look and feel the same across the story, we laid out a large piece of duvetyne on the floor to kill any bounce from the key light. Then lastly we had another piece of large duvy on a stand to block all the daylight coming in from the hallway behind the camera.
The moto for the lighting of this film was "simple yet effective". We never used more than 2 lights for any scene. Most of the time, outside of this scene, we would just modify what lights were already in the room. We felt that gave us a more grounded feel.

Please remember. Light the way you see fit. What's the best for YOUR film. YOUR story. Some may disagree with me on this but, when it comes to making a film, there is no wrong answer. There is just your answer.
Thanks for reading!

After 2.5 years of working in film, I can officially say I’m a director!

In July we shot a trailer for Blackout, a thriller script I wrote in 2025. I’m incredibly proud of how it’s coming together, but I’m more proud of how much fun we all had on set. Grateful for everyone who contributed their time, energy, and talent to this vision.

“Tensions rise among the ambitious staff of an up-and-coming recording studio when a multi-platinum producer introduces a new drug into their workplace. Powdered and jet black, it promises freedom from all mental, physical, and moral inhibitions to achieving their wildest career dreams—at the cost of their memories while under the influence.”

This was probably the 5th read through of this scene during a long, virtual callback, after various notes and trying it different ways. The director said, “Let’s do it one more time”
So naturally, I decided to full send it this time around. But when my entire audition set up fell over, a million thoughts went through my head.

NONE of them were of me freaking out. Why was that? I think there are a number of reasons:

At this point of the audition process, the director @dgordonfilm had asked me if I was comfortable with doing long, one-take scenes because this movie was going to have a lot of those. So when disaster struck, I thought, well if this was a one-take scene then I would need to keep going. So that’s what I did.

Now why did I have the confidence for that?

Well, every year I read a book, written by Michael Caine, called: Blowing The Bloody Doors Off. In the book there’s a particular chapter about “Using The Difficulty”. Caine talks about not shying away when things don’t go as planned while you’re doing a scene; use it. You trip up on the corner of a rug while entering the room? Use it. You’re filming in an incredibly uncomfortable location? Use it. Obstacles always help a performance.
That always stuck with me. And I now search for those uncomfortable moments while acting because I think my performances are better for it.

And hey… using the difficulty here, booked me this movie. So something tells me this Michael Caine guy knows what he’s talking about 😅

Words can’t even begin to describe how good it felt to be directing another project, especially working and collaborating with such an amazingly talented group of people behind and in front of the camera. Some of whom I’ve worked with multiple times and some for the first time. Half-O-Ween has been living in my head for years now, and to see it begin to come alive was truly magical. None of it would have been possible without everyone involved, especially my bud @timothyrob447 who produced the hell out of these last few days. Looking forward to principal photography this summer!
