2. An image is created with LIGHTS

Know it for all you are worth, and you will
know the key to photography.”
Founder of Kodak,
George Eastman

5. Effects of lighting:
• Highlight important objects by drawing our eyes to
them (guide our attention)
• Texture and shape
• Give different mood to the picture to deliver a
certain message
– Can make a character look mysterious by shading
some parts of their body
– Make the character look glamorous by using
3point lighting technique
– Highlight the emotion of the picture
7. Basic styles of lighting:
High-key
• Predominantly bright and
allows few dark areas or
shadows within the scene
• Features strong illumination
on the subject and often an
equally exposed
background
Low-key
• Enhances depth by using
contrasting tones of
highlights and shadow
• Only a few areas are lit at or
above key, resulting in more
shadow areas

10. Hard light
• Light directly from a source such
as the sun, traveling undisturbed
onto the subject being lit
• Highly directional
• Creates a relatively sharp &
straight shadow – very dramatic
Soft light
• Light which appears to “wrap
around” the contour of the
subject.
• Produces less or softer shadow
• Fills shadows and lowering
contrast
11. Soft light can be created
by:
• Bouncing the light
• Using diffusion materials
• Pulling the light away from the subject
13. Substractive lighting
• in outdoor daylight shooting, we
may have too much light filling
the subject.
• Therefore, we often use a
technique called substractive
lighting where we use negative
fill to remove the extra light to
control shadows of varying
densities.
14. Key light: main light on a subject
Fill light: softens the hard edges of the key and balances
the light
Back light: light behind the subject creating separation
from the background (distance)
21. • Mastering lighting techniques is one of the
most important part in photography. Get to
know and learn how to manipulate different
kinds of lights to your advantage.
• Always take sample shots. Adjust the lighting
based on the sample shots.
• You make the picture, not just simply take a
picture. Use lighting to create your picture.
