Basic Lighting

I will embed a video below showing you the basic lighting techniques we got taught, 3-point lighting. The video will consist of the us showing you how 3-point lighting works, and how much effect it can have on the actor or object. The reflectors are there to stop the light from surrounding the whole room they allow the light to focus on one point.

You start with Key point lighting but this shows a shadow on the face of the director so we turn on the filler light this evens out the light so its not as obvious. Also you finally add the back light to add more depth to the subject.



I was happy with this is think that we showed this to a high level and the audience can clearly understand what we are trying to show.
