Lighting and framing
Film form
What you need to know
Lighting: high-key and low-key, the position of lights (key, fill, back, under and top lighting), intensity, natural and artificial light, and chiaroscuro.
Framing: what is included and left out, distance, angle, level and movement, and how framing directs attention.
Colour as part of the image: palettes, tints and contrasts.
How lighting and framing work with mise-en-scène and sound to underline meaning, with examples from the set films.
