Coffee & Content: Cinematic Lighting Vs. Natural Lighting

4th Rom Com Final
Posted by Richard "RB" Botto

Happy Sunday, Creative Army!

Have you had a creative weekend so far? I have some content here for you that is sure to get the creative juices flowing, so grab your coffee, and let's dive in.

This week we're talking all things lighting! So first, in this great video from In Depth Cine, you'll look at the differences between 'cinematic lighting' and 'natural lighting.' Often what we think of as 'natural' is anything but. However, there are plenty of films that do manage to use natural lighting to their advantage. You'll see the differences and impact to determine how either could work for you and your project.

Next, in this video from Mark Bone, we're going a bit more niche by looking at documentary interviews. Whether you're working on a more traditional documentary, a piece of journalism, or your typical reality show, all of these require a very specific style for how they interview guests and how they light them for the best effect for the audience.

As always, here at Stage 32, we love to share stories and knowledge with our fellow film fans. Know someone who would love this content? Share it with them! Tag them below!
