Kundun: Amdo farmhouse – HMI as the sun

[MartonBognar]

Hello Mr.Deakins,

While reading Reflections, I had a question about the Amdo farmhouse set. You mention using blondes for ambient skylight and a 6K HMI for direct sunlight.

When I light day interiors, I usually think of the sky as cool and the sun as warm.

May I ask what your thought process was in this situation?

Thank you very much for your answer, and for the book. It’s been incredibly inspiring and helpful.
