Cinematography

Key light:

  • Most important in lighting setup 
  • Highlight form and dimension of the subject
  • Omitting key light can result in a silhouette effect
  • Key lights may be placed in a scene to illuminate a moving subject at opportune moments

Fill light:
  • May be used to reduce contrast of a scene to match dynamic range of recording media
  • Using less fill will make shadows seem lighter/darker than normal causing the viewer to react differently by inferring envorinomental and mood clues from the tones of the shadows
  • The positioning of the fill affects the overall appearance of the lighting pattern 

Hair light:
  • Works especially well in portrait photography 
  • Lights up the hair, often angled down 3 feet above the head
  • Add interest and texture to an image

JP Cooper:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey_hgKCCYU4 2) Sigala, Paloma Faith- Lullaby:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghSQz2BcDQU 3) Calvin Harris & Disciples- How Deep Is Your Love:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgqUJOudrcM This music video can automatically be identified to having dance music conventions features throughout its video. For instance, in this particular mid shot, a woman is free style dancing in time with the dance beat and fast cut shots. This creates a sense of realism that they would be in a dance/ club environment- this also further contributes to the sense of realism.  All of these fast cut, different angled shots fully exaggerate the dance feel aimed to be conveyed- this allows the audience to have a sense of euphoria and the 'feel good' dance feeling. Certain parts of the music video, for instance i...
