LIGHTING PLAN
Low-key lighting is mainly used for horror films due to
the effect it creates. The dim hue and shadows created
by this lighting are suited to the conventions of a horror
film; it creates tension due to its mysterious and dark
atmosphere, controlling how much of the surroundings
and characters are revealed. It sets the tone, mood and
creates a dangerous association with enigma through the
shadows and dull shades.
As is the case with most horror movies, my movie also
uses low-key lighting to create an ominous setting. Dim
lighting gives my movie a dank look which is perfect for a
horror movie. I used a small lamp while shooting the
scenes that were shot in the dark.
