The band appears as a holographic image in a saloon and as a hallucination in the desert. Middle: Cinematographer Christopher Probst (center, with back to camera) oversees the lighting of the “love scene.” Bottom: Filming the hero in the desert.
the hero’s end-position close-up and then flagged it off to create a dramatic slash of light across his eyes, evoking a more classical hard-lighting feel. From there, night quickly fell, and the rest of the sequence was shot night for day. We continued to apply a toplight bounce provided by two 4'x8' sheets of beadboard armed over the center of the set from a second-floor catwalk. Additional 2Ks were aimed from above to create pools of light for the bar and clusters of tables, and we also placed several of these units in corners to provide backlight when necessary. The holograms of the band were added in post from bluescreen performances captured in London after the Romania shoot. The long shoot day finished with a large night exterior scene showing our hero unearthing a robot and discovering what he’s been after: the futuristic technology of the compact disc! (Remember, the video is supposed to have been shot in the late Seventies/early Eighties.) Although we see the entire town lit up at night, Joseph decided not to shoot a wide master. Instead, we see the whole set in tighter shots that, because of the staging of the action, pan the expanse of the town. For these night shots, the production
obtained a Condor that looked like it should have been sent to a scrapyard 40 years ago. Still, it was enough to provide a high, half-corrected 18K HMI backlight to enhance the glows we placed in windows with 1K and 2K open-face Pars, and the “firelight” glows on buildings that we created with hidden 12'x12' and 8'x8' bounces and 10Ks on dimmers. To finish off the background lighting, we had about 60 extras holding torches. The foreground action was lit with low 4'x8' bounces and 2Ks warmed with various strengths of orange, red and yellow gels and controlled with Magic Gadgets flicker boxes.
