- perspective distortion: being able to manipulate something so the viewer sees an object a certain way
- moving the camera at different angles and lengths from subject create perspective distortion
Tonal Variation
- there are light and dark areas on subject
- size and position (direction, distance) of light determine tonal variations
- increasing tonal variation creates more depth to a subject, makes it less flat
Stopping flare
- nonimaging light can degrade photo
- keep lens clean
- lens hood blocks light
Fill lights
- can fill in shadows, but may create competing shadows
Single-light
- shadows on one side of the face can help place light
Broad vs short lighting
- short is when the light is on the side opposite the visible ear
- broad is when the light is on the same side as the visible ear
Can use many different light sources to help with hair, glasses or textures
Adding a background light can create a halo, or lit-up effect
Natural light is a good source, early morning or over head sun
gels and lights can determine mood, theme or feelings
