Lighting Lesson 20/06/13

In this lesson we were taught how to use lights on a set, and also how the lights looked through the camera. Also we were taught what effects the lighting can have on the set and its characters, and that filters can add characteristics to the scene.
This is a photo of one of the cameras that we were using, this camera is a DSLR, it operates at a 50 FPS (Frames per Second).

 This is a photo of me using one of the DSLR cameras that Adam was teaching us with. We were using three camera all facing at a set with lights set up around it, and we were looking at the effects that the lights and the filters had on the set, through the camera, so we knew what the audience would see.

This is a photo of Mitchel setting up on of the lights that we were using. All of the lights were fitted with something called "Barn Doors", these allows the user to direct the light and let it only shine on the areas that they wish it to.

After being in this lesson, i have learn that lights create characteristics to the scene, and also that certain colours have certain light temperatures for example, Blue is a cold temperature, and Red is a hot temperature, this means that if there is a blue light on the scene it will make the scene look colder, and a red light would make the scene look hotter. Also I learned that having a back light on and no other lights on, can create a mysterious feature on the character in the scene, it makes the audience wonder who the character is.
