Film Language: Lighting

Our next aspect of film language is Lighting.

You'll need to use the Film Language Powerpoint to work through the Lighting tasks. These are:

Look at the still images on slides 19-23. Copy the images into your blog and answer the questions for each:

1. Identify examples of high and low-key lighting.
2. Say which depict top, back or under lighting.
3. What effects are created by the lighting in each image?     

When these are complete, you need to do the following on a separate blog post:

1. Research film noir - focusing on the genre’s distinctive lighting style. Find a YouTube clip that fits the film noir genre and embed it alongside your research.

Anything you don't complete in the lesson will be homework, due next week.
