Lighting up your home

The piano falling scene, was in my opinion the most akward scene to light. The main reason for it being so award is that I did not design any windows so there was no way of natural light coming in from the sides, therefore the scene relied soley on lighting from above.
After trying many options, all of which gave me light which created horrible shadows, ruining the scene, I found the perfect light setting.
The light settign which worked for me was a simple "omni light" with a standard multiplier of 1 and a far attenuation of 80 - 200. The shadow density settings are set to 1, which is low, but still creates a slight shadow.
