Below are some snapshots from my camera work and directions on lighting...
A shot with the exposure set low ready for when the light is on him.
A shot with low exposure and one key light. I think the shadow it creates gives a very artistic look.
A shot with a blue gel over the light. This created much more of a daylight kind of look, which I found useful for my work.
A shot with a red gel over the light. I love that the shadows turned slightly green. An amazing contrast.
A shot with a back light behind him, and a white sheet over the key light that softened the lighting on his face.
The same shot with the key light creating hard light (no sheet). A very clear difference.
A shot with the back light directly behind him. I love the clear outline it creates.
The same shot with the exposure set lower. I simply used this to experiment just how low you can set it with the light still able to break through. I think it's a very effective shot.
I found today very useful. I hadn't had proper training with the lights before now, and after today I feel very confident with setting them up and using them. I've decided to use a light on set when I film my directions work. I will be using it for my indoor scenes with a blue filter to create a daylight effect instead of fluorescent. Along with this I will use a reflector for the outside shots in an alleyway to highlight my actors faces.
