Section 1: cameras
In the short film, close-up shots were seen when at the 45th second, the frame covers the face and chest of man without shirt; tight close-up was when hands of man playing piano; shot of a dead man who had been stabbed on the head; man playing piano at 6:12 minute; and lady dressing at 4:25 minute; and dialogue at restaurant between blind man and another man. Wide shot was when a man moves to play piano on stage. The shot shows the whole stage and where the man is at. The shot is also used at the 5:45 minute when the blind man is walking on the street. Medium shot was the most extensive shot utilized in the film. It was seen when the man was lieing on bed; when 2 men were conversing at a restaurant as they took coffee; on 6: 00 minute as the blind man was talking with a lady before crossing the street. Medium shot is also on 9:13 minute as the blind is undressing and a lady is watching.
Section 2: lighting
In the short-film, 3-point lighting formed the basis of most of the film’s lighting. Key light was clear on 45th second to light the actor, and when a man is walking on stage to play piano, only the stage is lit. Fill light was clear as they were taking coffee as the restaurant. Back light was seen to be positioned behind the subject and it lit the subject from behind on 9:13 minute as the man was undressing. In the short film, the studio lights were set up for a ratio of 3:1, and the key light was 2x – 1 f-stop – brighter relative to the fill light at the 9:13 minute. The color palette that was used perfectly fits the film’s story. The cloths worn by the actors had colors that matched the environment and the scene. As the man is playing the piano on stage, he is on a nice black suit which matches the scene and the environment. On the street, he is wearing a grey coat which also matches the cool outside environment and the scene.
