Lighting

Like I said in my post about "The Set for Younger," here is a post about the lighting I used during the filming process. I will be showing screen grabs from the final piece to depict the different lighting styles I used and also to give you a little sneak peak!

 For this scene, we mainly used the lighting inside my room which included multiple hanging lights which I think really fills the shot with light yet still giving a moody vibe.

For this hallway shot, no lighting techniques were really used. Simply the lights on the ceiling did the trick. :)

 This shot is probably where I think we went wrong during the filming process. I was hoping the light from inside would brighten her face more, and sadly the lights on her left don't do much justice in giving her a back light. Mistakes happen!

 For this long shot we again used the LED light box to give off more light in the front, and the positioning of the street light in the back offered light behind the subjects. However, I do find the blaring light a little distracting.

  For this shot I had my friend holding an LED box light high above our heads to give off that "moon light" feel. The lights from inside my room gave him good back light.

For the shots in the kitchen, we just turned on all the lights in kitchen as well as all surrounding areas to give a balanced lighting scheme. We wanted to make the kitchen scene look as authentic as possible.
