TECHNICAL POST - 3 POINT LIGHTING

In order help us in the production of our music video, we studied 3 point lighting. We had an existing knowledge from our music video research that lighting plays an important role in the production of music videos, being an important aspect of mise-en-scene and influencing the 
overall success of a music video production. Not only does the use of artificial lighting help to make the shots in a production more visual, but also add effect and an aesthetic to a music video. We decided to experiment with 3 point lighting to see how we can effectively create a sense of realism through our lighting, but also achieve an authentic and visually pleasing appearance. To align with the conventions of the indie-rock genre, we also decided to experiment with an orange gel filter, to see what effects could be created when it came using orange lighting, as seen in a variety of music videos of the indie-rock genre.
