What's the difference between a flat light and a clip light?

Plane light and clip light are terms about light layout applied in photography. \x0d\\x0d\ 1。 Plane light means uniform illumination. For example, when we take a photo of our identity, we use one lamp on the left and right sides of our characters, and the illumination brightness of the two lamps is the same, so there will be no light and shade relationship between the left and right sides, so it is what we call a big flat light, and it is also what we call a flat light environment when it is cloudy, so most of the flat light is generated when our environment is relatively smooth and the light irradiation is not very strong. \x0d\ Great flat light is also called world light, and the light ratio index is relatively small, mainly because there is a large area of light in the front direction. It is characterized by transparent picture, few dark corners, almost no shadow, and easier light distribution. For skin, color and other properties are better. Great flat light is more suitable for children's photography. \x0d\\x0d\2。 Light clips are divided into left and right clips and upper and lower clips. As the name implies, two lamps are mainly used to illuminate at a certain angle up and down or left and right respectively. You can shoot flat and beautiful light effects, and you can also shoot stereoscopic light with a certain brightness. The effect is the light on both sides of the object, which changes gradually from the edge to the center, which is beneficial to the three-dimensional effect, but it will cause changes in texture and color of the skin. Clip lighting is a widely used lighting method in portrait photography, which is convenient, fast, changeable and easy to control. There are many ways to clip light, but the basic changes are the same. Many combinations of light have evolved on the basis of clipping light, such as butterfly light.
