Lighting P3c



We set up our lighting with three different lights. One of the lights we used a diffuser which was positioned behind left to the subject. The second and third lights were positioned in front of the subject, one on the left and one on the right.   

In the photo above we are using high key lighting. There are no shadows on the face and 



Chiaroscuro 

Contrasting effects of light and shade in a work of art. Leonardo da Vinci brought the technique to its full potential, but it is usually associated with such 17th-century artists as Caravaggio and Rembrandt, who used it to outstanding effect. 


Low-key

Low-key lighting often uses only one key light, controlled with a fill light or a simple reflector. Low key light accentuates the contours of an object by throwing areas into shade while a fill light or reflector may illuminate the shadow areas to control contrast.
