So what’s the lighting strategy for this film. Make it look real. To that end we’re having a drop ceiling put in. Since we have several lighting gags in the film, we’re not using fluorescence fixtures instead we’re using tungsten units shooting straight down into the a 2′x4′ fluorescent diffuser with a grid focuser the type you’d see in any office. The possible addition will be a sheet of opal on top of the diffuser. All these lights tied into a dimmer.
