What does flat light mean in shooting?

Flat light refers to the uniform and stable state of light when shooting. In this state, every object can get the same illumination, which makes the whole picture more harmonious. Flat light can also reduce reflections and shadows, and effectively improve the clarity and vividness of the picture. So plane light is one of the most important elements in shooting.

To achieve flat light, it is necessary to control the direction and intensity of light source and light. Carefully analyze the scene and lighting conditions before shooting, and choose the appropriate light source and lighting settings. You can also adjust the intensity and direction of light through tools such as soft light board and reflector to achieve the effect of plane light. In practice, it is necessary to constantly adjust the lighting and try different placement angles and light source combinations to obtain the best plane lighting effect.

Plane light has a wide range of application scenarios, especially suitable for shooting products, food, works of art and other occasions that need to show details and texture. In commercial photography, leveling technology is often used in commercial advertisements, promotional materials, product shooting and other fields. At the same time, when shooting night scenes, buildings, landscapes and other scenes, it is also necessary to use the flat light technology to maintain the light balance and clarity of the picture and obtain better shooting results. In a word, leveling technology plays a very important role in shooting, which is worth our continuous research and exploration.
