Lighting Mastery Series

INTRO

This is a completely free lighting course. No sales pitch or product. Just something I've been wanting to teach for a while.

There will be 5 parts in total, with each part uploaded to youtube weekly.

part 1: Direction

The first video of the lighting course. We cover light direction; how the position of a lamp can have intended and unintended effects on your subject, character or scene.

PART 2: Size

Knowing when to use a small or large light source can have a big impact on your work. In this video we talk about how the softness of shadows will change depending on the source of light.

part 3: Color

In this video we talk about the differences that color makes to lighting, and the two categories: natural and artificial.

Part 4: Readability

This video is all about how to use light to make an image more readable. We cover light intensity, reading exposure with false color, and using rim and fill lights for subject separation.

part 5: Emphasis

In this final part of the Lighting Mastery series, you'll learn how to use light compositionally. You'll discover falloff and the inverse square law, and how to avoid distraction bombs.
