Short Film Lighting Breakdown

[MikeKozlenko]

Hey everyone, I wanted to share some selects from a short film I recently DP'd:

I wrote a blog post that discusses some of the setups, including what worked and what didn't quite work https://www.mikekozlenko.com/post/short-film-cinematography-day-1-of-2

Considering that budget and time were at a premium, as many shoots are, I think it came out decently; curious what ya'll think!

Looks great!

Good use of motivated light. Did you guys do wardrobe and some pd to keep colours on palette, or was that done in post?

Gotta feel good to get that kind of quality and consistency across the entire project.

Much appreciated! We had a production designer that helped us take care of all of that. We didn't have a proper wardrobe department on this film so the PD, the director, & I discussed color choices prior to shooting
