 Thank you guys for your kind comments. OMG, the foam, how could I forget it? O.o

The actors are Alessandro (he acted in my Edgar Allan Poe image) and Fabio, the other guitarist in my band, Absently.

I was not completely satisfied of my shot, but still happy for my top ten. The place is the upper side of my house. Taking a look at the the window it reminded me of Sweeney Todd's place. The lighting was: 2 flashes off camera on the left and on the right and a couple of portable led lights near my camera.

Great scene! I would have loved to see a more dramatic lighting, closer to what you see in the movie. Perhaps using just one flash on a side and a reflector on the other to give more depth and to make the background disappear? Just a thought, great shot though!

Nice reenactment. The lights are set well but seem a bit blown on his face

I didn't see the movie, so I didn't recognized the scene, but I just saw this window. I think maybe muted colors and some grain may have added to the feel. A good one nevertheless.

Fantastic setup! I had wanted to do a Sweeny Todd shot, but forgot to borrow a straight razor from my aunts salon. Very well done!
