Lighting man coming over and explaining the possibilities for our music video

We had the lighting specialist that came and talked us through about the different types of lights and effects, we can obtain and use for our music video, remaining low budget but with a high quality.

We have learnt that depending onto the lighting the studio (as the main structured used) needs to be adapted (for example black or white background) also the colour temperature is crucial as it needs to be the same for the camera as well as the lighting to enhance the location. So lighting are more adaptable as they can move and you can change the lighting shape (bigger/smaller, make it spin or move) as well as colour, giving you a wider verity of options, however the simpler the lighting the better as more as a realistic result and professional as a final result.

The lighting can be crucial for any music video as well as pictures as it can transform something so simple into amazing or exactly the opposite. I felt really lucky as our school is able to provide us highly qualified technician and the equipment required to obtain the best result possible, remain low budgeted.
