under their wing. I felt well protected.
Still, I thought the weather was going
to pose more of a challenge in the color
grade, but actually [Harbor Picture
Company colorist] Joe Gawler and I
were able to get around that with all of
the good editing that J.C. and Ron
Patane did.
The diverse texture of New
York is very much part of the look. I
presume that's why you chose
widescreen and went with wider
lenses: to give more emphasis to characters in their environment.
Young: That perspective came
out of necessity, because we shot with
[Arri/Zeiss] Master Anamorphics
when they were in their prototype
stage. We only had three focal lengths
- 35mm, 50mm and 75mm - and
we basically shot the whole film on the
50mm, so a close-up felt as wide and as
expansive as a wide shot. The look came
out of what could be considered a
deficit, but it turned out to be really
great. It helps strike that balance
between decaying space and decaying
humanity.
How did shooting anamorphic
affect your lighting?
Young: Not much. That's the
beauty of those lenses coupled with the
Alexa. We're now able to work at very
low light levels. Every shot is wide open
[T1.9] - thanks to Stanley Fernandez
Jr., the most amazing focus puller.
I like toplight, so my mind's
always thinking that I'm not going to
see the ceiling anyway. That helps me
be flexible with anamorphic. I love to let
production designers do whatever they
want in the frame and not have to
worry about hiding a light stand.
Walk me through your lighting
package and workhorse units.
Young: We used tons of fluorescents, so we went back to just good ol'
Kino Flos. We loved mixing cool white
with daylight [tubes]. When we did
strike bigger heads, we leaned toward
HMIs on this one. The only time we
used tungsten was for big night exteriors, when we just needed a little bit of
difference.
