Lighting Revision

Studio Lighting 


Last week we got given 3 tasks to complete.
Task One- Use hollywood lighting, with a hair light in the background as separation lighting.
For this we had to move the backdrop back a bit, other wise the hair light would have been to close to the subject and the light would have been to harsh. 

Task Two- Rembrandt Lighting, with a coloured filter to light up the background.
This was the first time that I had used the coloured filters, we had to turn the model light off otherwise it would burn the plastic. We had to place the light quite close to the backdrop and it took a few test shots to get it right but once we did it looked great.  

Task Three-Part One- Loop lighting with 2:1 ratio 
Part Two- Loop lighting with a 8:1 ratio 
We used the light meter to work out the ratios and we had to use a reflector on the other side of the model to achieve the lighting effect. The closer we moved the reflector the lower the ratio got because it was filling the shadows more and reversed when we moved it away.
