6. How to deal with lighting elements in creation?

Lin Gelun believes that the three elements of an image are: ① the movement of the subject; ② camera movement; ③ lighting.

Bobuk believes that the three elements of an image are: ① movies; 2 composition; ③ lighting.

Everyone has "lighting" (that is, what we usually call "light"). It can be seen that lighting (light) plays an important role in movies. In the film crew, people call the lighting engineer "Master Deng".

A, lighting type:

1, divided by light source:

(1) Natural light: sunlight and skylight lighting;

② Artificial light: lighting.

2, according to the nature of the light:

① Scattered light (soft light);

② Direct light (strong light);

3. According to the nature of modeling:

(1), main light:

A, the main light that illuminates the object, which determines the overall illumination mode in the scene;

B, use strong light, which makes the subject have obvious shadows;

(2), deputy light:

A, it is the auxiliary light of the main light, which is mainly used to provide appropriate lighting for the obvious shadows produced by the main light irradiating the subject (be careful not to eliminate all shadows, and the shadow part of the subject should also have a certain modeling effect).

B, use soft light (scattered light).

4, according to the light level:

① Smoothing (front light) Advantages: It is easy to explain a plane image or details completely. Disadvantages: dull and unchanging.

② Side lighting: the most commonly used lighting method in movies. This lighting method makes the subject feel layered.

③ Backlight: Lighting from the back. Strong backlight will make the subject stand out, which is terrible; Weak backlight will make the subject mysterious and moving.

4. Top light: the light that shines vertically on the top of the head. Often make the subject ugly.

⑤ Angular light: the light that shines vertically from people's feet. This often makes the subject look cruel.

Second, the actual operation of lighting

Specifically, the most commonly used lighting method for shooting a movie is the so-called "three-point lighting".

The main methods of "three-point lighting" are as follows:

1. First put the main light source (main light lamp) in front of the subject, and pay attention to make a certain angle with the subject.

2. Then, an auxiliary light is set on one side of the object to partially eliminate the shadow formed by the object under the irradiation of the main light.

3. Finally, arrange the backlight. Put the light source at the height behind the subject, so that the edge of the subject has a halo, so that the subject is full of three-dimensional sense.

In traditional movies, "three-point lighting" is a necessary method. In modern movies, it is sometimes no longer used. )

There are two main types of lighting lamps: spotlight and astigmatism lamp.

Spotlight: "S", 5000W (large);

"z", 2000W (medium)

"750", 750W (small).

There is an adjustable knob in front.

Astigmatism lamp: not adjustable, use gauze or transparent paper.

Reflector: (plywood covered with tin foil), when shooting on location, reflector is often used to fill the light.

In addition, when shooting the location, the sunlight and the horizontal axis of the camera should form a 45-degree angle. When the sun is low, the subject will appear lack of hierarchy; When the sun is high, the shadow of the subject will be too heavy.

Third, the role of lighting in movies

Question: Each student tells a movie with unique lighting, what's good about it, and the interruption of lighting in the movie.

The role of lighting in movies;

1, exposure function: light can make the film get accurate exposure, and make the film get normal film density after development;

2. Modeling function: According to the requirements of photography art creation, the lighting makes the two-dimensional picture properly present the artistic effects such as the texture, three-dimensional sense and spatial sense of the subject.

3. Composition function: the light and shade effect produced by lighting can highlight the main body, balance the composition of the picture, and make the composition have formal beauty.

4, the role of drama:

(1), description and performance environment:

(2), the performance of the characters' emotions:

(3), shaping, characterization:

(4) Performance theme:

⑤ As an important plot factor.

6. Show a unique life experience.

All landowners, rendering, sublimation, symbol

⑧ As the narrative subject and core.

The light treatment on sunny days is mainly divided into three situations.

1, outdoor lighting:

In order to better express the theme of the film, outdoor lighting is mostly selected in sunny days, and shooting is selected in sunny and transparent conditions.

Roof walking:

2, indoor lighting:

Indoor lighting is mainly based on high wattage spotlight lighting, which creates and renders a warm and golden light distribution effect. For example, Ma Xiaojun saw the bedroom with the picture of "the man in the picture" in Milan, the water room where Milan washed her hair, the classroom where little girls danced, the Moscow restaurant and so on.

Function:

(1), sense of form:

The light distribution processing based on high wattage spotlight lighting gives the shooting environment a sense of space and layering. Make the figure's body and face have obvious contrast between yin and yang, and have a strong modeling effect.

(2), beautify the characters

The lighting treatment with high wattage spotlight lighting as the main part greatly beautifies the character (Milan) to be praised in the film, and vividly shows the rich poetry and beautiful love in Ma Xiaojun's heart.

For example, "Wash your hair for Milan" this paragraph:

Lens 638: Close-up of water pouring into Milan's hair. The sun shines on Milan's neck. The fine hairs on Milan's neck sparkled in the sun.

The sun shines on Milan's neck. Close-ups show us the fine fluff on Milan's neck shining in the sun. Praise a girl, praise a girl, and the lights and close-ups in the movie will be so wonderful.

For example, the passage "Farewell to the man in the painting":

Lens 329: Close-up Ma Xiaojun's hand brushed her long hair gently. The golden sun shines on the hair. The music of Country Knight began. (overlapping)

The golden sun shone on the hair of the man in the picture. Shine sunshine on his hair to show the romance, beauty and poetry of love in Ma Xiaojun's heart.

③ Subjectivity

The light distribution processing based on high wattage spotlight lighting makes the subjective color of people and environment stronger.

④ Juvenile perspective

The light distribution processing based on high wattage spotlight lighting gives the shooting environment a sense of space and layering. Make the figure's body and face have obvious contrast between yin and yang, and have a strong modeling effect. This contrast between Yin and Yang is strong, and the modeling effect is distinct, which is the perspective of young Ma Xiaojun on the world and things. This is a highlight of the lighting treatment of the movie Sunny Days.

Jiang Wen's feelings about the environment and the relationship between environment and light are extremely strong. Jiang Wen's feelings are vividly expressed by the light distribution with high wattage spotlights as the main lighting.

For example, in the paragraph "I saw the person in the painting for the first time", the lighting made the room of the person in the painting clear of yin and yang. At the beginning of this paragraph, Ma Xiaojun stood in the shadow with a telescope in his hand. Later, Ma Xiaojun saw the "man in the picture" on the wall through a telescope. Ma Xiaojun stepped forward, and Ma Xiaojun stepped out of the shadows and came to the bright sunshine. With the change of darkness and brightness of "light", write the great excitement in young Ma Xiaojun's heart and the awakening of Ma Xiaojun's sacred and great love.

3. Overexposure:

Sunny days have some special light effects. In some paragraphs of the film, the producer deliberately overexposed the film.

For example, after the paragraph "Wash Milan's hair", shoot Milan in Milan's room.

Lens 668: Close-up Milan is wearing a white coat with long black braids hanging over Milan's chest. Milan's eyes are like cones, staring at Ma Xiaojun. Suddenly, Milan smiled.

Milan is wearing a white coat with long black braids hanging over Milan's chest. The black braid on Milan's chest makes the white clothes more white.

On the one hand, the special film with strong grain contrast is used for high-profile photography. At the same time, strong lighting overexposed the subject Milan. High-profile photography and overexposure make Milan's black hair and white clothes more prominent and intense, further increasing Milan's aesthetic feeling and illusory elements ("painting people").

In short, through overexposure, the beauty of the theme, the crazy love with Ma Xiaojun and Ma Xiaojun's special mentality are expressed.

For the convenience of description, we will talk about the use of colored light in the later chapter on color. )

Fourthly, the lighting treatment in film creation.

As we said before, motion, lighting and color are three important contents of video. )

How to deal with lighting elements in film creation;

1, overall lighting style:

Determine the lighting style according to the film style.

First, the documentary style:

① Make more use of natural light, sunlight and skylight. If it is indoors, its light should be the light from the light source (sunlight, light) existing in the room itself. (although this is more difficult to do in actual shooting).

② More scattered light (soft light).

(3) If "three-point lighting" is adopted, the contrast among the main light, auxiliary light and backlight should not be stiff and obvious.

(4) The direction of the main light in the scene should be roughly the same as that of the light source in the scene. It's sunny outside; Indoor lighting is indoor lighting.

B, romantic, exaggerated, expressionist style:

There are no certain rules for the use of light. Can be life-oriented, can also be gorgeous exaggeration.

C, commercial films:

(1), lighting should make the subject clearly visible. Can't be like a documentary. In order to be close to life, the theme is sometimes looming and vague.

(2) Lighting should make the subject have a formal aesthetic feeling.

(3) Lighting should make the subject have a distinct subjective evaluation by the author.

(4) lighting should make the subject have distinct dramatic characteristics.

2. Lighting treatment of specific characters:

The protagonist in the film must have his lighting scheme. Women such as French captains: Sarah, Charlie, Anna, Mike, fiancee, etc.

3. Specific scenarios
