School lighting class


Earlier today our Media studies class was lucky to get hands on experience with some high quality lighting equipment and receive some quality advice and techniques when it came to how to create the perfect effect when it came to setting the mood.  Here we were experimenting with lighting to one side of the model in this case Felix. This effect allows us to light up one side of the subjects face and shadow the other side. This can be used in low light areas to give off a sense of mystery to the character as we cannot see all of his face.
 
We also did a little bit of work with small amounts of light that would illuminate only one part of the body In dark conditions. This is usually used on the face for extreme close ups as it only shows the face. However in such low light your average camera will struggle to pick up any light. So here in this image you can just about see the subjects face and nothing else.
