During the production of "The Clean House" I looked to create an ethereal mood using the play between the voile panels and the realistic living room where the maid Matilde remembers her parents in Brazil. Matilde (Eliza Vasconcellos) is center stage, lit with R08 and R61 from the front, and R54 from the back. The cyc is lit with R124, R125 and R126 to create a light pink - orange wash. The voile panels are then back lit R33, R55, and R8 to create the wash of colors and give a transitory mood to Matilde's memories.
