In this step, Greg from Lens Pro to Go is teaching about lighting terms. Ambient light is the light that is in a scene or location before any additional lighting is added. Key light is the main source of light and fill light is a supplementary light used to lighten the shadows. Hard light creates strong, well-defined shadows while soft light wraps around the subject and gives softer shadows. Practical lights are visible lights used as props to illuminate the scene. Spot and flood are light sources projecting a narrow or wide beam of light respectively. Color temperature is the characteristic of visible light and is stated in Kelvin. High and low key lighting is lighting with very little shadow or very contrastive, dark shadows respectively. Contrast ratio is the ratio between the brightest brights and darkest darks in a scene.

In this step you'll learn about color temperature, a fundamental in cinematography. Color temperature is used to describe the color of a light source, measured in Kelvin. You'll also learn about white balance, a digital camera setting used to determine how color temperatures are registered. Lastly, you'll learn about how color temperature is used creatively in film and photography.

Color Temperature Explained — The Cinematographer's Guide to White Balance & Color Temp Fundamentals

 PIXEL VIILAGE

In this episode of Pixel Village, Radhakrishnan will be discussing white balance and color temperature. White balance is very important in photography, but is often taken for granted. Color temperature is the unit in which color temperature is expressed and is measured in Kelvin. Radhakrishnan will demonstrate how to use in-camera white balance setups to get an accurate white balance. He will also discuss the use of third-party products to achieve a better white balance.

In this step, Matt from the A-Team will be discussing the basics of three-point lighting. Three-point lighting refers to the light placement on a film set with one light in front of the subject (the key light), one behind the subject (the backlight), and one filling in the shadows (the fill light). Matt will also discuss how to modify any light for the best possible look and how to mix and match different lighting setups.

In this step of Four-Minute Film School, Valentina V and cinematographer William Hellmuth will be discussing how to shape a face with light. They will discuss different techniques and how to use light to create visual interest and drama. They will also discuss how to mix color temperatures, how to create contrast, and how to create a flattering bottom side key. Lastly, they will discuss how to create a gritty look with top lighting and how to trust your motivation when lighting a face.

In this step you'll learn about bi-color lights and single-color lights. Bi-color lights are most valuable for their flexibility to match the color of existing white light sources in an environment you can't control, while single-color lights are most valuable for higher total output levels. Bi-color lights can be used as soft-light sources and are constrained by their limited ability to track what's known as the Planckian curve. Single-color lights can output pleasant-looking soft light but cannot be easily shaped or used with hard-light modifiers. Lastly, it's important to consider the environment and location when deciding which LED light would be best for your production.

In this step you'll learn about different types of lights used in filmmaking and their use cases, pros, and cons. Fire is a unique and warm color temperature, but is difficult to control and maintain. Tungsten lights are iconic and sturdy, but get hot quickly and require thick gloves to handle. HMI lights are powerful, but expensive and require a heavy ballast box. Fluorescent lights are efficient and soft, but prone to flicker. LED lights are efficient and small, but their output can't match HMI lights."
