- Broad Lighting - the light is coming from the side that the cmera is facing - this lighting makes the face look fatter.
- Short Lighting - the light is coming from the opposite side of the camera - this makes the face look narrower.
- Key lighting - this is the main lighting - set this up first and then fill using other lights where needed.
- Fill light gets more detail in shadow areas.
- Sources of fill light; - other lights and reflectors.
- Silver Reflectors - creates a hard fill light, its very reflective and harsh.
- Gold Reflectors - creates a hard light but a more gold light.
- White Reflectors - creates a nice soft reflection of light.
- Seperates the subject from the background.
- Lighting of the background - the light faces the background.
- Hair or rim lighting - the light is behind the subject..
- Circular background light - creates seperation and background interest.
- Make sure you get a catch light in your subjects eye.
- Look at some examples of Alexis Sinclaires work.
Workshop Task - Examples of fill and seperation lighting.
Seperation Lighting - For this is used the soft box light at the front, left of the camera and the tugsten light to light Kelly's hair. I also used a white refletctor to fill the light.
Bacground Lighting - For this image I again used the soft box at the front and the tunsten at the back. I also used a white reflector in this image as well
