I am going to be shooting a short film in the near future that is set in a bar. the mood the director is after is a dim seedy type place. I am guessing that I will need extreme contrast ratios and pools of focused soft light (boy is that a contradiction in terms) does anyone have any suggestions in terms of equipment or techniques. I will be started to shoot some tests soon but at the moment this is a almost no budget film (although we will be applying for funding)
