Why are the skin colors of old TV dramas all dark?

One is because of makeup, and the other is because of lighting.

In the 1980s and 1990s, TVB's makeup was really thick, such as dark eye shadow and nose shadow. Most of TVB's TV dramas were shot in the studio (and still are). After so many years, the picture quality is inevitably a little dim. As for a dream of red mansions, first of all, it is a real scene shot with natural light. Secondly, we liked pink actors here at that time. After watching the visit of the founder, we patted Lin Daiyu's white hand and put on makeup many times before and after, so the hand makeup was just powder, of course, we couldn't see the black. In addition, to correct the above statement that Louis Koo is tanned, this is not the case, as long as all fans know that Louis Koo tanned himself with an ultraviolet lamp.

Another is that continental drama likes to use filters in recent ten years.
