Reading from week 7 – Lighting the a scene

Two things I got out of the reading:

1. The Basic Lighting Set Up – having the diagrams of this helped me to understand the difference between and different uses of front light a back light. – That back light emphasises shapes the depth and shapes of the shots. – The front light is a softer and fuller light that is non-directional and unobtrusive.

2. Overlapping light is good for a shot in which the subject is moving as it keep the light constant.
