Loves this Julian , you can't be creative with a budget in mind . Let the ideas have no budget and let the producers decide, thats the only way to do it. Then at the end of the day its down to the producer if they want to reduce an idea.
This man is a MASTER! Cinderella is one of the BEST lighting I have ever seen. Remarkable lighting and colors! It breaks my heart that more movies aren't made this that way anymore. Julian White is a legendary garffer.
As much as I like listening to Julian, I get the sense that he's the primary creative force behind the lighting. I always think it should be the DP. Simply because we give the Oscar for Cinematography to the DP not the Gaffer
Thats just shows how fake our history is claiming that there were grand balls with so many guests dancing just under the thousands candles light. Such a joke. But this video shows, and proves how much light you need to light up a castle with ballroom properly. It means they had to have electricity, no other way! But on the topic of film lighting yes, that's a grand scale. Nice!
It doesn't prove anything to be fake. The exposure needed for a camera, shooting on a fairly deep stop, for depth of field is very different to what the human eye needs.
You can easily see people with only candle lights on the table. But you need an extremely one of a kind lens to shoot it and everything except one eyelash of one actor would be out of focus.
Producer: Why do you need all this lights?
Gaffer: Sir, because you are making a Cinderella movie.
You can tell he’s not a sound guy with that creaking chair.

how to light a big ball room scene on a budget undie film : give up and do something else.
I thought the gowns were ugly.
Imagine spending 100 million dollars and making a dog shit movie :D. unfortunately thats todays climate of so called Hollywood movies.
