BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / The Great Game - frame by frame analysis

Just started reading this. Very detailed geeky stuff, but the director talks us through every frame in the episode and why they chose to shoot it that way (angle, lighting etc). Some technical stuff, but I found it very interesting (because I love trivia).

Oh, it's the cinematographer, not the director. So the main focus is the ligthing of the scenes. Very interesting, though, I didn't how much time and details are spent in lighting every possible frame.

Oh, and we get the explanation for the lavender light used.
