'Derren Brown' by Ukelilli

Check out the new Ukelilli video above - we shot this a few weeks ago here in New York. The set up was simple, involving a large green screen and three 1K Arri lights. We put 1/4 CTB (color temperature blue) and diffusion gels on the lights to give everything a whitish color. Two of the lights were bounced off the ceiling and the third was used as a backlight. To create fill on Ukelilli's face, we put up a large reflector opposite of the backlight.

For sound, we used two separate mics. We were concerned the primary shotgun mic wouldn't pick up her voice well over the ukulele, so we gave her a wireless lav as well.

Editing was handled by John Ott back in Los Angeles and it looks like it turned out great!
