Light is one of the most important means of expression in photography and video filming. Try lighting the same object with different types of light and you will see how much different effect you get. The most subtle psychological characteristics of a person and shades of mood can be conveyed with the help of light in a portrait, landscape or still life.

Several lighting fixtures, reflectors a camera or camcorder, a model or object that you are going to illuminate
Instructions
Step 1
Place the bright spotlight 30-40 degrees above the axis of the survey and move it 35-45 degrees away from the subject. You will get a kind of light called painting. This light simulates daylight familiar to our eyes. For a diffused light effect, you can use reflectors or a white wall.
Step 2
Reduce the deep shadows that can be created while setting the key light with fill light. To do this, install special fixtures in front of the lighting fixture, covered with white material - this will soften the shadows and increase the amount of light.
Step 3
Light the subject from behind and you get backlighting. Its function is to separate the subject from the background, to overcome the two-dimensional effect of the image.
