Lighting

Azfar Choudhury
 Types Of Lighting

Ambient Light: The general (and often undesirable)
Illumination surrounding the shooting or projection area,
not exactly the same as Available Light or Natural Light
Back Light: Back Light separates subject from background.
Angle: toward the lens from above and behind the subject,
or above, behind, and slightly to the side of it, high enough
to cut lens Flare. It is especially helpful for video images
that may suffer loss- of-edge contrast.
Colour Distortion, Colouring Light: Gels not only correct the
colour of light sources relative to one another or the film,
they can also be used to distort light for dramatic or
artistic purposes.
 Uses Of Lighting

Ambient Light: Clearly ambient light is important in
photography and video work, as most shots rely largely or
wholly on ambient lighting.
Back light: This creates a glowing effect on the edges of
the subject, while other areas are darker. The backlight
can be a natural or an artificial source of light.
Colour Distortion, Colouring Light: As I have said already
this is not only to correct the colour of the lighting this can
also be used in a dramatic scene to make it more realistic
and interesting.
