3-Point Lighting3-Point Lighting
3-Point lighting is the lighting technique used by
cinematographers on most professional productions. It
is easy to understand but it takes a lifetime to master.
In addition to 3-Point lighting, there
are also 5-Point and 7-Point lighting
scenarios which we will also discuss
and analyze.
3-Point Lighting3-Point Lighting
Just as it sounds, 3-Point lighting refers to lighting the
subject from three angles. The lighting positions are
referred to as the Key Light, the Fill Light and the Back
Light .

The most common type of lighting instrument used in
film and television is the Fresnel. The Fresnel is named
for the inventor of the lens which was originally
designed for lighthouses.
Types of LightingTypes of Lighting
The Fresnel lens has concentric rings that
help focus and direct the light. Most
Fresnels utilize tungsten globes or lamps
(not bulbs). Tungsten refers to the steel used
in the filament inside the globe.

The other type of lights commonly used in the motion
picture business are referred to as HMI’s (Hydrargyum
Medium Arc-Length Iodide). HMI’s produce daylight
color temperature light very efficiently due to their
unique ballast system.
Types of LightingTypes of Lighting
HMI’s are available as both Fresnels and PAR
(Parabolic Aluminized Reflector) spot lights. Their
output per watt is almost 2X greater that that of
tungsten instruments, they have a lower operating
temperature and come in a range of wattage.

THREE BASIC ATTRIBUTES of LIGHT
• Coherence (Quality)
Hard and Soft Light
• Color Temperature
Daylight and Tungsten
• Intensity

Foot Candles and Lumens
Lighting 101Lighting 101
HARD LIGHT
Light is transmitted directly from a small
point source and results in relatively
coherent (parallel) rays. This gives the light
a hard, crisp, sharply defined appearance.
The light from a clear, unfrosted light bulb,
a focused spotlight, or the sun in a clear
sky are hard light sources

SOFT LIGHT
Lighting 101Lighting 101
Soft (diffused) light has the opposite effect. As
shown in the photo on the left, soft light tends
to hide surface irregularities and minimize
detail.
There are numerous techniques used to soften
or diffuse hard light sources.

CONTROLLING COHERENCE
Diffusion refers to the practice of
softening hard light with diffusers. A
common type of diffuser is silk fabric
stretched in a frame. Small diffusion
frames are called flags, 6x6 to 8x8
frames are butterflies and the 12x12 to
20x20 frames are called overheads.

Controlling Coherence
Filters also known as lenses are
attached to open-face lights
(especially HMI’s) to help diffuse
and direct the light. A set of lenses
usually includes a spot, a fresnel, a
“stipple” and one or two wide
angles.
Lighting 101Lighting 101
CONTROLLING COHERENCE
Diffusion also refers to many types of
gels (plastic filters) that are used to soften
and reduce the intensity of lights.
Some popular diffusing gels are frosts
(250 and 216 and Hampshire ), grid
cloth, opal, and toughspun. Gels are
attached to barn doors with
clothespins (C-47’s or bullets).

Color Temperature
The second attribute of light, color
temperature, refers to its basic color as
measured in degrees on the Kelvin color
temperature scale (Ko
).
Lighting 101Lighting 101
COLOR TEMPERATURE
Although light can be any color
between ultraviolet and
infrared, There are two colors
we are concerned with:
5,600o
K for daylight and
3,200o
K for tungsten lamps.
Camcorders are programmed
with these two values as their
white balance presets.

COLOR TEMPERATURE
Tungsten lights operate at 3,200o
K while
HMI’s burn at 5,600o
K. To match a
tungsten instrument with daylight or an
HMI, we attach a CTB (color
temperature blue) color correction gel
to the light. To match an HMI with
tungsten we attach CTO (color
temperature orange).
Lighting 101Lighting 101
CONTROLLING INTENSITY
Dimmers are the traditional way to
control the intensity of lights.
Unfortunately, as the wattage
decreases, the color
temperature decreases as well.
Dimmers come in sizes ranging
from 600 watts called “hand
squeezers” to dimmers that can
handle 20,000 watts.
Lighting 101Lighting 101
CONTROLLING INTENSITY
Scrims resemble a frame of finely-
woven screen wire like that
found in a screen door. A full set
includes two doubles, a single, a
half-single, a half-double and a
gel frame. Adding a single
reduces the light's intensity by
30% and a double reduces it by
60%.
Lighting 101Lighting 101
CONTROLLING INTENSITY
Like scrims, some flags (called nets)
can reduce the intensity of a light
without changing the color temperature.
In addition to a single net and a double
net, a full set of flags includes two
solids, and a silk. One side of some
flags is open to make it easier to blend
the shadow.

VIdeo Production: Lighting Overview

  • 2. 3-Point Lighting3-Point Lighting 3-Point lighting is the lighting technique used by cinematographers on most professional productions. It is easy to understand but it takes a lifetime to master. In addition to 3-Point lighting, there are also 5-Point and 7-Point lighting scenarios which we will also discuss and analyze.
  • 3. 3-Point Lighting3-Point Lighting Just as it sounds, 3-Point lighting refers to lighting the subject from three angles. The lighting positions are referred to as the Key Light, the Fill Light and the Back Light .

  • 25. Types of LightingTypes of Lighting The other type of lights commonly used in the motion picture business are referred to as HMI’s (Hydrargyum Medium Arc-Length Iodide). HMI’s produce daylight color temperature light very efficiently due to their unique ballast system.
  • 26. Types of LightingTypes of Lighting HMI’s are available as both Fresnels and PAR (Parabolic Aluminized Reflector) spot lights. Their output per watt is almost 2X greater that that of tungsten instruments, they have a lower operating temperature and come in a range of wattage.

  • 31. Lighting 101Lighting 101 HARD LIGHT Light is transmitted directly from a small point source and results in relatively coherent (parallel) rays. This gives the light a hard, crisp, sharply defined appearance. The light from a clear, unfrosted light bulb, a focused spotlight, or the sun in a clear sky are hard light sources
  • 32. Hard Lighting Instruments Lighting 101Lighting 101 LTM PAR Light Ianiro “Red Head” ETC Source 4 Leko Spotlight Mole Open Face Ianiro “Blonde”
  • 33. SOFT LIGHT Lighting 101Lighting 101 Soft (diffused) light has the opposite effect. As shown in the photo on the left, soft light tends to hide surface irregularities and minimize detail. There are numerous techniques used to soften or diffuse hard light sources.
  • 34. SOFT LIGHTING INSTRUMENTS Lighting 101Lighting 101 China Balls “Chimera” Soft Boxes Mole Richardson Fresnel LED Lighting Ziplight or Soft Light KinoFlo Diva Fluorescent
  • 35. CONTROLLING COHERENCE Diffusion refers to the practice of softening hard light with diffusers. A common type of diffuser is silk fabric stretched in a frame. Small diffusion frames are called flags, 6x6 to 8x8 frames are butterflies and the 12x12 to 20x20 frames are called overheads. Lighting 101Lighting 101

  • 37. Controlling Coherence Filters also known as lenses are attached to open-face lights (especially HMI’s) to help diffuse and direct the light. A set of lenses usually includes a spot, a fresnel, a “stipple” and one or two wide angles. Lighting 101Lighting 101
  • 38. CONTROLLING COHERENCE Diffusion also refers to many types of gels (plastic filters) that are used to soften and reduce the intensity of lights. Some popular diffusing gels are frosts (250 and 216 and Hampshire ), grid cloth, opal, and toughspun. Gels are attached to barn doors with clothespins (C-47’s or bullets). Lighting 101Lighting 101

  • 41. Color Temperature The second attribute of light, color temperature, refers to its basic color as measured in degrees on the Kelvin color temperature scale (Ko ). Lighting 101Lighting 101
  • 42. COLOR TEMPERATURE Although light can be any color between ultraviolet and infrared, There are two colors we are concerned with: 5,600o K for daylight and 3,200o K for tungsten lamps. Camcorders are programmed with these two values as their white balance presets. Lighting 101Lighting 101 Infrared Ultraviolet 5600o K 3200o K
  • 43. COLOR TEMPERATURE Tungsten lights operate at 3,200o K while HMI’s burn at 5,600o K. To match a tungsten instrument with daylight or an HMI, we attach a CTB (color temperature blue) color correction gel to the light. To match an HMI with tungsten we attach CTO (color temperature orange). Lighting 101Lighting 101
  • 44. CONTROLLING INTENSITY Dimmers are the traditional way to control the intensity of lights. Unfortunately, as the wattage decreases, the color temperature decreases as well. Dimmers come in sizes ranging from 600 watts called “hand squeezers” to dimmers that can handle 20,000 watts. Lighting 101Lighting 101
  • 45. CONTROLLING INTENSITY Scrims resemble a frame of finely- woven screen wire like that found in a screen door. A full set includes two doubles, a single, a half-single, a half-double and a gel frame. Adding a single reduces the light's intensity by 30% and a double reduces it by 60%. Lighting 101Lighting 101
  • 46. CONTROLLING INTENSITY Like scrims, some flags (called nets) can reduce the intensity of a light without changing the color temperature. In addition to a single net and a double net, a full set of flags includes two solids, and a silk. One side of some flags is open to make it easier to blend the shadow. Lighting 101Lighting 101
