Rembrandt's solution to lighting games

Rembrandt's light play is illustrated as follows:

1, let the light shine from the model at an angle of 45. Basically, we put a single lamp in a soft light cover, and the height of the lamp is close to 45 degrees with the model. Sometimes, in order to make the shadow deeper and the contrast between light and shadow stronger, the height of the light may be higher, close to the highlight level of a butterfly light.

2. Put the camera in a good position. The camera can be placed on the left or right of the model, about 45 away from the model, which is the easiest to shoot Rembrandt light. Click on the video to see the relationship between camera, model and lamp more clearly.

Rembrandt's grinding and lifting skills

1, Rembrandt light is a kind of strong side light illumination in portrait photography, which makes any side of the subject's face show a bright area of inverted triangle, also known as triangular light. It can split the subject's face in two, making the two sides of the face look different and more stereoscopic. The light bitmap is not absolute, and any form of light can form a similar effect, which can be called Rembrandt light.

2. Rembrandt lighting technology highlights the nuances of each face, that is, the Rembrandt lighting patterns on both sides of the face are also different. The lighting effect can also be adjusted arbitrarily with auxiliary light according to the photographer's wishes. Although Rembrandt-style Gao Fancha lighting is very interesting, proper use of reflector and auxiliary light to minimize the contrast can enhance the whole portrait and make extraordinary works.
