Sticks & Stones is a dark thriller with
seedy characters, locations, and situations. I worked with Arnie
Reyes to examine several potential looks for the project. Since
much of this script happens at night, we settled on a straight,
in-camera picture, lighting high-key with lots of shadows, and no
post-processing except for mild color and tonal grading.
