American Cinematographer - May 2015 - 37

Hardy used the lenses' optical qualities
to underscore any given scene's particular perspective. The cinematographer
offers the example of the scene in which
Ava describes her dream about a blackand-white room, from which she steps
into nature for the first time. "We played
with things a little bit in the DI, but I
also shot that exterior wide open," he
reveals. "The bokeh on those Xtal
Express lenses creates these concentric
circles in the background that seem to
converge to the center of the lens."
The subterranean bowels of
Nathan's retreat assume a decidedly
more clinical air, and include windowless bedrooms, a lounge, Nathan's laboratory and Ava's observation room, all of
which were built onstage at Pinewood
Studios. Nathan monitors all of the
rooms in his house via CCTV; Hardy
employed GoPro Hero3 Black cameras
to capture this footage.

Caleb familiarizes himself with Nathan's work. Hardy opted for fluorescent lighting in Nathan's lab,
which was built onstage at Pinewood Studios. "This is Nathan's headspace," he explains, "and we
needed a whiter, cleaner light in that environment."
