I thought that the lighting, texturing, camera placement, (and aspect
ratio) were the strong parts of the picture. The texturing is
understated but very, very competently handled. The lighting, love it
or hate it, is a very active element in the picture, effecting the sense
of space, mood, and providing the main tonal contrast. The colors by
comparison are mostly natural, and largely of a middle to light
tonality. It also must be noted that the lighting and texturing are the
main elements emphasized by the relatively austere architectural design
being depicted. The overall effect is of a tasteful, harmonious
interior displayed in a well-crafted scene. The depth of detail and
active presence of the camera lends a photorealistic quality.
The title puzzled me though. "Incubus", an "evil spirit that comes onto
persons in their sleep; a nightmare" seems intended as a contrast to the
mild ambience of the room. Perhaps a suggestion that the apparent
harmony of the scene may hide something evil? Or is the observer an
intruder?
