Technical Diagrams

The Driveway / Doorway

• The main lighting for this scene will be natural or from a light which is above the doorway. This filler light will help brighten up the scene.

• The cameras will be placed in two main locations, this will be inside the doorway looking over the actors shoulder and outside the doorway looking into the house.

Library• The key lighting for the library shot will be from lights that are on the ceiling. This is because it is a dark room with not a lot of natural lighting.

• The first shot will be taken on the opposite side of the table that the actor is sitting at and the camera will be facing them. The other shot will be an over the shoulder shot.

Classroom

• The key lighting this will be coming from above as again the lighting is placed on the ceiling. There may also be some light coming through windows.

• This location only has one shot and this is an extreme long shot therefore the camera is placed far away from the action taking place.

Restaurant • As the diagram shows, there will be filler lighting coming from behind the actors as there are windows. However main lighting will come from ceiling lights as it is quite a dark restaurant.

• The camera will be position opposite the table to take a medium shot of the two actors and we will use the zoom function to take a close up.

The Street / Road• This shot is filmed in the evening meaning that there will be some natural lighting however to brighten up the shot and to ensure the actor is visible we will use a filler light which will be in front of the camera.

• This camera will be in front of the actor, but far away to take and extreme long shot. The camera will be going backwards as it is tracking the actors.

Kitchen

• This shot will also have natural lighting coming through the window behind actors however the key lighting will be a ceiling light.

• The first camera is placed behind the actor as it is an over the shoulder shot. The other camera is placed in front of the actor a reaction shot.

Living Room

• This location will be lit with lots of little filler lights which will be candles. If we find ourselves needing more light we can use the fireplace or a lamp to add more light. The TV may also give off some light as this will be playing in the background.

Dining Room

• The camera in this scene will be opposite the actor which is across the table. This is so we can film the medium shots and close ups in the same place.

• The main lighting will come from a light which will be placed above the camera.
