We looked into lighting this week and how it can effect a scene. We also looked at practice lighting as this could potentially be a really useful technique in our Documentary's. Here are my notes:
We then in our Documentary Production Groups went on to analyse this scene and the how the lighting is used through this image:
We said it was low key lighting used because there is a lot more shadows than highlights. We said however that the contrast was low because we can still see the other colours and shades in the scene and not just and black and white. We think it has been styled to look natural as its meant to be lit with natural light that is coming in through the window. This makes the window the light source and the bold lines are created by blinds. It is a soft light because it only gently lights up the room. We think the time of day is meant to be late afternoon when the sun is quit low. There are no practical lights used in this scene just daylight. We said over all this scene conveys a very mysterious and dark mood.
This practice has helped us established how important lighting can be in a scene at creating a mood and style.
