For this scene the director suggested that it needed to look like night time. So I decided to use lights from my general cover to highlight just around their actors and on to some of the back of the set (bails). I also decided that it needed to have a slightly dimmed ambiant light effect to translate that they are supposed to be in a home.
I could have just used my stage right o/w side light however this would have created a very dark shadow on the left side of the actors and would not be representational of an ambiant indoor living room light. However I still wanted more depth to the scene so I added in my rigged o/w side light that hit the actors from behind stage right which created an extra level of depth to the emotional scene as you can see in the video above.
