Lighting obectives in a scene


Lighting Objectives

Visibility

Naturalism

Composition

Depth

Graphic effect

Mood- the key light sets the mood

Fill light sets the contrast ratio.

Lighting strategy

Block

LightRehearse

Tweak

Shoot



Think about where will the key light be?

What’s the source, what’s the motivation?

Decide on camera angle before you lock the look

Lighting ratio? How much contrast

Key light should ideally be exposed normal, n it establishes the mood of the shot

Ratios are like 4: 1, 8: 1, and 16: 1 so on

Background light: it sets tones, and create context for the environment, it is used solely to light the space around the subject.

Practical’s: used as motivation within the space or as a prop. Practical’s are seen in the scene that you are shooting sometimes, like lamp. Campfire
