A few days after filming this footage we had planned to film our second scene involving Ava and Dre where Ava had set up for them both to meet up in the middle of the night.
I had changed the original lighting of the location in the music room with studio lighting which I covered with an orange filter to make the shot look like it was filmed in the past as I wanted to display a flashback.
Both types of lighting were completely different, however I wanted to create a more cinematic lighting set. I also included a Venetian blind which epitomises the generic conventions of a film noir. It being apart of our mise-en-scene illustrates the dramatic shadows in the room.
At the back of the studio lights I had placed a black sheet on the wall to create darkness on the other side as i wanted to create a window. This dark sheet means and represents the dark night and the time they are meeting each other. In this scene we mainly operated on our lighting as we used redhead lights and also added the orange filter over it so it changes the tone and atmosphere of the room. The warm tones and the parallel lines portrayed were created with our lighting and props equipment.
The video below of Ava playing piano conveys the venetian lines that run through the walls and piano. This clip is also an example of what effect the the orange filter gave the room which gave it is a warm tone. meaning has been created in this clip through the lines foreshadow Ava's death and the lines never end, yet Ava's life does.
