By Andrew Whitehurst – Before we begin looking at an example let’s consider what the function of lighting is. Lighting can be used to add mood and drama to a shot, but it’s overriding function is to describe 3D objects onto a 2D area, be that a computer monitor, a print out or a cinema screen. To put it another way, the light is used to “model” the objects so that on a flat surface we can tell what shape they are, and how one object relates to another.
