You film in a dark room, with paper covering up your lamp to make it dim, or you can do it while editing with brightness.

Also make sure you don't put paper over a lamp that gets extremely hot.

Re: how do you make the scen dark?
In my opinion its a bad idea to take a picture in the dark. It's much easier just to darken it in post.

I agree with greenscreener studios, animate the scene normally and then digitally darken the scene, that way you get a mutch better quality video and you have a wide range of choices in which you could do with the scene.

You could bring down your exposure and gain a bit. That normally works for me. I guess it depends on how dark you want it though.

Post is when you're in the process of editing the pictures/footage to just took in a program like Vegas or After Effects.

Here's an idea:
Just turn the contrast up. Works pretty well. Dim the lights also for a better effect.
