old days, we would have corrected everything, but I think it’s fun to play with those elements and integrate them into the overall image.” For night interiors, Grobet often used Kino Flo Image 80s and Lowel Rifa lights in
a range of sizes and configurations. “The Rifas are a great soft source, easy to set up and control,” he says. “In the Kinos, we used the type of bulbs you’d typically find in settings such as prisons or supermarkets. For the romantic scenes, I was gentler in
handling the different color temperatures. In keeping with the arc of the story, I lit with softer contrast in the beginning and gradually increased it. After Jim’s character comes out, we made things more colorful and joyful, and further along, as things become tense and frantic, we heightened the contrast and color saturation through the choice of film stock and in the digital intermediate.” Sunny, slightly blown-out highlights are another aspect of the look. “We created that with a combination of lighting on set and DI tools,” says Grobet. “I like highlights to pop a little because it makes the images more vibrant and realistic. With today’s film stocks and DI technology, you can stretch it a long way, and they will hold.” The production’s negative was processed at Miami’s Cineworks Digital Studios, which also provided high-definition-video dailies. The final 2K scan and color-correction were done at LaserPacific in Hollywood, where colorist Mike Sowa did the timing. Release prints were made at FotoKem in Burbank.
