We really wanted to experiment more with lighting but struggled to achieve exactly what we wanted. Whether or not that was down to not having all the correct equipment for the lighting I'm not sure.We wanted to have dust floating in beams of light as though the light was shining through a window or door that was ajar. Unfortunately we couldn't achieve this effect. Reg explained that it was due to the density of our 'homemade dust'. It was probably too heavy to float and linger in the air for any period of time.
An idea I also had was to have multiple beams of light shining down/across to create a forest effect. The beams of light would represent the trunks of the trees. Again, we couldn't achieve this effect which I was really disappointed about. Reg explained the lighting wasn't powerful enough. We are going to have another photo-shoot next week and so I am going to bring a torch and see if i can create this light-beam effect with that. Eventually with achieve an effect that suggested a door was open and light was sneaking in and highlighting certain objects/areas of our scene.From a narrative point of view I saw this as our 'scene' that had been forgotten about for hundreds of years had finally been rediscovered.
I was very pleased with the images we got.
