Lighting

Due to the setting of where we are filming our opening sequence lighting is key because there are no built in lights in the ceiling. The lighting kit we get from school will be of great use and this will be used throughout filming. It is important that as a group we don't determine the lighting from our eyes, it must be done on how it looks through a camera because this is what is it being recored through.

The lights are going to be put on stands but we will make sure they are put into the correct places and angles in order for no mistake shadows to be seen and for the correct amount to be produced. For example when the camera is on something specific such as the Polaroids we don't want it to be too bright as then the pictures cannot be visibly seen . This is why we will expermient with lighting before we will so we know the intesnity of l lighting and where light need to be at specfic points.

 Due to where we are filming is pitch black lighting will be on the whole time for safety and our recording. With our lighting kit we can also get a reflector which produces a slightly different effect to pure bright light. It won't be as intense to the object but will still reflect the light onto it. We will use this when we don't need such bright light on something but just a more subtle way of exposing light. As well as the lighting kit, light adjustments can be made on the camera as well which we can also experiment around with. This could be seen as an easier way to produce different effects of light, however will not give a stronger effect than actual lights. When filming we will use mainly the lights, but also settings on the camera so that it can look realistic as possible.
