( Caution: spoilers!) We’re effectively shocked when Love kills her neighbor, Natalie (Michaela McManus), for seducing her husband when she starts hooking up with college-aged Theo (Dylan Arnold) or when Joe starts a romance with the librarian, Marienne (Tati Gabrielle). “I feel like I really don't attach myself to thinking that I can predict what's going to happen,” she tells, “And I kind of anticipate and expect to be surprised with the way in which things go down.”Īs viewers, we can’t say we were as prepared. Victoria Pedretti, who stars as Love Quinn opposite Penn Badgley’s Joe Goldberg, knows to expect the unexpected at this point. This is the spirit of the ASC, and I have to say, I've seen it from almost every DP I've worked for.What happens when two murderers get married, have a baby, and start a new life in the suburbs? The third season of You on Netflix offers an answer beyond our imaginations, with couples’ therapy and dead bodies snooty neighbors and a secret glass cage changing diapers and hiding evidence. At just about every level, we're all continually learning, and we should all also be teaching. I think it's more or less every production person's duty to share and pass on what they know. And you start out by berating the writer for a title that didn't deliver on it's promise to tell you lighting secrets (or something)? It's incredibly self centered to want to learn, but not want others to know this. You're on a site that's dedicated to the same thing (sharing knowledge for free). (Maybe that's actually a bad example, b/c there are patented drinks, but they're all lame, like the "Hand Grenade®")Įvery DP and almost every gaffer I've ever worked for or with has been incredibly and completely selfless in what knowledge they disseminate. Some bartender invented it, maybe gets to name it, but you're gonna get other bartenders with the same ingredients more or less everywhere else who can make it just as well or better. Any lighting technique you use, someone did before you and someone will do after you. You're not working with patentable intellectual property here. Wait.so you want others to share their lighting techniques, but don't wish others to b/c it's your "bread and butter"? Honestly though, the best way to improve your narrative film lighting is by observing the world around you everywhere you, figuring out how you'd imitate/augment that for exposure (sort of irrelevant with the new cameras) and, more importantly, to maximize modeling and mood. They act like it's some sort of secret along the lines of the magician's code of secrecy. I assume it's because gaffers are afraid of their skills becoming less valuable (which is valid). While, I am glad not many people share their secrets with lighting (since it's my bread and butter), I think it's strange how few tutorials exist online about it. All I ever see is lighting tips like "We used soft light." or other VERY general "tips". I'd like to see someone NFS post some original content in the form of lighting tutorials. All he really said is something along the lines of, "we didn't do as much top light and we lit from outside the window often and added diffusion when we went in for coverage" As you probably realize, this is hardly an in-depth article about his lighting techniques.
