What is your favorite backlight scene in the movie?

Anyone who has seen the film "Youth" knows that it is based on the period from 1970 to 1980, and tells the story of a group of teenagers who are in their prime of life experiencing growing love germination and life destiny full of variables in an army art troupe full of ideals and passions. This film not only evokes a generation's memories of youth, but also is praised for its exquisite pictures. In particular, the use of light and shadow can not only reflect a strong sense of the times, but also create an artistic texture.

From the contents and posters of the film, we can see that backlight technology is widely used in the film. Let's discuss some skills related to backlight. What is backlight? Backlight is a lighting method used in photography. Broad backlight includes full backlight and side backlight. Its basic characteristics are: from the light level, total backlight is the light emitted from the subject with his back to the camera, also called "backlight". The side backlight is the light from the camera's left and right 135 back to the subject. The light receiving surface of the subject accounts for 1/3, and the backlight surface accounts for 2/3. What are the benefits of backlighting? Can enhance the texture of the subject. Texture is extremely important to the picture, and backlight shooting generally shows a transparent texture. On the one hand, the brightness and saturation of transparent objects can be improved by backlight illumination, so that dim transparent or translucent objects under forward illumination show beautiful luster and good transparency, which increases the effect of light transmission and brightness enhancement. On the other hand, the brightness difference between transparent and opaque objects in the same picture is obviously widened, and the light and shade are opposite, which greatly enhances the artistic effect of the picture.

The rendering that can enhance the atmosphere is in Fanghua, and the backlight renders an atmosphere with a sense of the times. Backlight photography on weekdays, especially landscape photography, adopts the light and shadow modeling method of low angle and large backlight, and the retroreflected light will outline gorgeous sunset, transpiration sea of clouds, mountains, villages and trees like ink and wash. If you add some small scenes that set off each other, such as mist, canoe, birds, etc., it will trigger a deep sound in vision and mind, which will make the connotation of the work more profound. Can enhance the visual impact. When shooting in reverse light, due to the increase of the proportion of dark parts, quite a lot of details are blocked by shadows, and subjects with simple lines or small light receiving area suddenly appear in the picture. This large light ratio gives people a strong visual impact, thus producing a strong artistic modeling effect.

Choose the location where the backlight is shot. If it is a silhouette, the background should be simple and unified, otherwise the foreground will be covered by a messy background. When shooting other subjects, you should avoid some particularly empty places, otherwise it will be easy to overexpose and especially affect the appearance. So it's best to choose a darker background, such as architecture and natural background. Many backlight scenes in Fanghua are selected indoors, which can bring obvious texture. The best time for backlight shooting is two hours after sunrise and before sunset. At this time, the oblique backlight of the sun is relatively strong, which is the prime time for shooting backlight. Due to seasonal reasons, summer is a good time to shoot backlight, from 4 pm to dark, and from 3 pm to dark in winter. Noon is generally not recommended, because the top light is formed at this time, which is not suitable for taking pictures. Knowing this, do you also know the skills of backlighting?
