STYLE: photoreal, cinematic concert realism, long lens, atmospheric haze in the light beams, rich contrast. GRADE: warm tungsten stage wash from above with hard side keys. Base tone deep black auditorium. Secondary tone warm golden light on faces and instruments. Accent one cold blue backlight rimming the players from behind. CAMERA: high wide of the stage, then a slow glide down and across the players. SUBJECT: A small string ensemble of five performers plays together on a lit stage. 0-4s > Wide shot of the full stage. All five begin together on a downbeat, bows moving in the same direction. 4-9s > The camera glides down and moves laterally across the group. Bowing stays synchronised. One player leans into a phrase and the others follow her timing. 9-12s > The camera settles on a medium two-shot of the front pair as the phrase resolves and bows lift together. AUDIO: <live string ensemble recorded in the room, chair and bow noise, one breath before the entry, room reverb>
