Lighting - experimental film

In the last lesson, the class started to make a short experimental film.
I was on the lighting team. Over the weekend, I had compiled a lighting script of ideas as to how we could light the scene, with different lists of suggestions for extreme close ups, close ups, medium shots, long shots and extreme long shots.
In the lesson, my group set up the lights and arranged them so they would light well without being in shot or casting any unwanted shadows. There were three lights, so we had one each. I attached a dark purple filter onto my light. After some experimentation, we found out that my light was good for bleaching out shadows and muting colours, so my light was used to balance the other, brighter coloured lights and to create a kind of surreal half-light.
In addition to operating my light and helping set up/put away the equipment, I also helped the other people who were in my group by suggesting which colour combinations would go well at different points.
