3 question critique
- What is the purpose of the main light? The key light is the first and usually most important light that a photographer, cinematographer, lighting cameraman, or other scene composer will use in a lighting setup. The purpose of the key light is to highlight the form and dimension of the subject.
- What is the purpose of the fill light? Its purpose is to literally fill in the shadows. If you use a main light source, also known as a key light, alone, you will inevitably create very dark shadows on the side of the subject that is not directly lit up by the main light.
- List the lighting patterns. Split, vibrant, 3 quarter and butterfly.
