I have directed Ghost Stories by Candlelight which is currently running at Mont Orgueil Castle. With the idea of staged and tableaux photography, I want to use the cast of the show to recreate scenes in tableaux positions. I want to show a mix of heavily costumed and stylised imagery and the simplicity of crew images working in the background of the show. As the castle will be very dark and the primary light sources for the images would be a mixture of torches, screens and candles; I will conduct the shoot on Aperture Priority mode on the camera.
