Article about how to candle light

I found this very interesting site about methods for lighting a candle lit scene that has really inspired some of my thinking one of my main worries was how to create a candle lit effect while ensuring enough light is in the scene. One of the worries I have is that having 4 walls means that is very hard to lights and lights actually in the scene. One of the things I have been insisting on from the start is only really using natural lights in terms of only using LED candles although I know that will not entirely light the scene I’m hopeful that with a light coming from the window which I will diffuse through the curtains and a blue gel to make it look like the light is the moon. I am hopeful that this light will be cast across the back of him and will create a nice blue fill light that will complement the flickering orange of the light hitting his face. I hope there will be enough light coming from the LED candles that will create an interesting shadow effect across his face. But until we have all the candles and the set up and ready I won’t be able to tell this. So hopefully will get some time in the studio to thoroughly light it.
