American Cinematographer - September 2013 - 77
1st AC Tim Battersby adds, “The
LEDs produced such strong flares in the
B Series anamorphics, particularly the
50mm, that they completely whited out
the video tap on the camera and made it
difficult for Vince to see the actors [in
the viewfinder] at times. But after seeing
the first rushes, we knew we would be
okay.”
In the pub called The Two
Headed Dog, Gary and an old flame,
Sam (Rosamund Pike), do battle with
female twins who unite to form a
twisted robot combatant. The
confrontation takes place on the pub’s
back patio, which the art department
dressed with strings of 100-watt light
bulbs, 20 bulbs to a strand, for a total
output of 15K. Each strand was run
through a dimmer and dimmed to
approximately 60 percent. Pope accentuated the scene’s action and dialogue
with bulb festoons hung on large
battens. Colley recalls, “We made five or
six battens with 10 to 12 festoons each,
and then mounted them to C-stands
and placed them just out of shot to
continue the look [established by the
practicals]. We dimmed them down to
50 percent with no diffusion, and they
looked great.”
For the brawl at The Beehive, a
free-for-all involving about 50 people,
the production built a set on Elstree’s
Stage 8. The scene took almost a week
to film, not including second-unit stunts
and effects. Pope turned once more to
Allan’s videotaped stunt rehearsals, this
time to help plan an elaborate set of
lighting cues. Rowland’s crew installed
practical wall lights around the set interior and hung chandeliers from the ceiling, all of which were augmented with
2.5K tungsten Molebeam Zip lights.
General fill was provided by eight
modular Finn Lights, each containing
six 1K Par cans, behind panels of Lee
129 Heavy Frost and ND.6. “We turned
our lights off and on in the middle of a
shot,” says Pope. “There’d be a strong
backlight in one direction, and when the
camera panned away, that light would
go off and a new backlight would come
up. Of course, it’s a lot easier to work
