I've been attracted to light since I can remember.
00:07
Light to me is everything.
00:09
In Wicked, the light is actually the darkness, and the darkness is the light.
00:14
All through movie one, the pink sun rises for Glinda, and the sun is always setting
00:21
for Elphaba.
00:24
Every lighting choice, every camera choice, lens choice, was all about how does it feel
00:30
to find your best friend in the world and then be pulled apart.
00:38
Every scene has a feeling that I need the audience to get.
00:42
That relationship between what's in the frame and movement is such a huge part of the language.
00:47
And not just movement of what's in front of the camera, it's movement of the camera itself.
00:53
What I love about our anamorphic lenses was that we were able to burst out into the colorful
00:59
world of Oz, be in these huge, beautiful landscapes, also making it feel completely organic.
01:07
At the same time, be able to do these intimate, intimate close-ups with Glinda and Elphaba.
01:14
We could be so close to them, and they could look right in the lens, and you could feel
01:18
their connection.
01:21
Whatever way to get there, for us to feel anything for these characters, that's where
01:24
we should be going.
01:25
So we had some big shots in there that really allow you to sit into the set, because it's
01:30
a giant set.
01:31
I've never seen a set bigger than this.
01:34
Great dance numbers and beautifully orchestrated choreographed scenes where the camera just
01:41
has these lyrical, huge, sweeping crane moves.
01:47
I think we all were allowed to dream bigger than any of us had ever dreamed before, and
01:54
we were invited to do that and asked to push our imagination to the absolute maximum.
