Planning & Lighting the Set.

Firstly, we placed our set into the studio and had 5 people sit in to represent our potential host and 4 guests. From this we decided that it was best to light the set using a method called 3 point lighting.

This is where a key light is aimed (a powerful spot/tungsten light) at the subject, causing a shadow down one side of them. Fill light (cool lights) is then used to light the side which is in shadow. Furthermore, a back light (tungsten light) is positioned behind the subject, which brings them out from the background.
