The Games We Play
By Abel Haddish
I worked on the world premier of The Games We Play, a two person show following a couples relationship, through its ups and its downs. Each scene has the couple play a game, showing how tense or relaxed their relationship is in that moment.
The lighting needed to follow the ups and downs of the relationship, and after talking with the director I decided on representing that primarily through color temperature.
