As for "To lock down", it is said in a text talking on the way camera is used in a movie according to the moment. First part has a hand held camera that moves a lot conveying dinamism, but when focusing in a depressed character named Ray..."Ray's life is very static and filled with desaturated colors, so we locked down the camera. These people live in huge spaces, so we take advantage of the widescreen format. Kind of trying to show the loneliness of it all."

Thank You again.

Maybe it means "focused?" If all other characters are conveyed with a "widescreen format," then maybe Ray is conveyed with a more "focused" view?...more black space and less viewable area?
