The document discusses different types of lighting used in photography, including high key lighting, 3 point lighting, back lighting, chiaroscuro, and natural and artificial lights. 3 point lighting consists of a key light, fill light, and back light to illuminate the subject from different angles. High key lighting reduces contrast for a bright impression. Back lighting creates shadows and separation from the background. Chiaroscuro uses high contrast between light and dark for depth. Natural light comes directly from the sun while artificial light is manually produced.

3. High Key
High Key lighting reduces the amount
o contrast because of the strong
lighting. This creates a happy and
joyful impression.

4. 3 Point
Key Light
This is the main light. It is usually the
strongest and has the most influence
on the look of the scene. It is placed
to one side of the camera/subject so
that this side is well lit and the other
side has some shadow.

5. 3 Point
Fill Light
This is the secondary light and is
placed on the opposite side of the
key light. It is used to fill the shadows
created by the key. The fill will usually
be softer and less bright than the
key.

6. 3 Point
Back Light
The back light is placed behind the
subject and lights it from the rear.
Rather than providing direct lighting
(like the key and fill), its purpose is to
provide definition and subtle highlights
around the subject's outlines. This
helps separate the subject from the
background and provide a three-
dimensional look.

7. Back Light
This is used to illuminate the subject,
which creates a sillouette effect. Or it
is sometimes used to create a
separation of the subject and
background.

8. Chiaroscuro
This is a high contrast between light
and dark. It is often used to create
depth and volume.

9. Natural Light
This means light directly applied from
the sun. No other light sources are
used. It gives the image a natural
effect.

10. Artificial Light
This is light that is produced manually
by people. It’s the total opposide of
natural light.

11. Tungsten Lights
Tungsten lighting is a term used by
photographers to distinguish from
fluorescent lighting or strobe
lighting.
