I was asked to light the Whale Room in the Oceanographic Museum of Monaco, located on the sea border in Monaco-Ville, Monaco. The Whale Room has a huge whale skeleton suspended from the ceiling about 20 feet high. The room itself is about 100 square feet and naturally lit by the sun through many windows, plus ancient and beautiful 19th century practical lights. (Pictured) The starting frame of the dolly track camera. A 650 W Fresnel enhances the diver. On the top right, there is the other 5 kW, Chimera, and Cosmetic Peach. (Pictured) The dolly track camera, and the dead angle for the sound guys. Behind them is the South West window. (Pictured) On top, one of the 5 kW Chimera, and on its right is one of the 5 kW Chinese lanterns.
