PESO:

He goes to a lot of trouble for photos that all look the same.  I liked one
but then I saw all of the others and realized they were all staged.

Crewdson has famously used cinematic lighting since his "Twilight" series
(1998-2002). He employs a regular lighting cameraman and dozens of film
technicians, as well as props and movie-making tools like rain and fog
machines -- anything to enhance a desired atmosphere. He doesn't do
storyboards, but writes a one-page description of each photograph. Titles
are kept simple: "Seated Woman on Bed," "Woman in Parked Car," "Pregnant
Woman on Porch."
