The Three Point Lighting RESEARCH


Three-point lighting is a standard method containing three types of lighting used in the three point light, by using three different positions. First key light, it is used to shine directly right upon the object. It focuses mainly on the strength, color and angle of the object and makes it stand out. Second fill light,also shines on the subject, but from a side angle relative to the key and mainly used to create shadow. Third back light, (hairshoulder etc ) shines on the subject from behind, often  to one side or the other. It makes parts of the body look sharper then the other. It is mostly used in visual media such as video, film, still photography and computer-generated imagery. However we wont be using it as its not relent to out film. Our light will be already provided and it wont be needing any extra lighting.
