"The interior of the house was on the dark side. We lit daylight scenes through windows with 18K and 12K PARs. It looked like hot summer sunlight. Sometimes I let that light go four to five stops over-exposed. The hot, blown out sunlight and the luster of glimmering reflections contrasted with shadowy darkness in the house. I used filtration behind the lens made from a black silk stocking, which softened the look a bit."
