any last minute tips for my shoot tomorrow?

[downnfront]

i'm shooting a rap video tomorrow night, just wondering if anyone has any general suggestions for the shoot. it's going to be all outdoors, mainly empty parking lots and in front of empty/dark houses. i'm using two sets of worklights and plan to flood the background with one of them and then bounce one onto the artist. if anyone has seen the nas video for "thief's theme," that is the vibe i'm going for, but with a darker, creepier look. i think everything should go smoothly, but i'm sure there are plenty of details that i'm overlooking, so any suggestions and tips are more than welcome. thanks.

The best suggestion for this or any project is to test first. Don't go to set not knowing if you have adequate equipment (lighting, grip, distro, etc). If you are the DP, then go to the location a day before and test your equipment and its appropriateness for the task. Anything less is unprofessional.
