Requirements: .PDF reader, 5.5 MB
Overview: Drawing from author Tim Palmer’s 30 years of experience working as a cinematographer for award-winning drama series including Killing Eve, Bad Sisters, & Line of Duty, this book is the go-to guide on how to light just about any scene a cinematographer may face when shooting a TV show.
Focussing on lighting scenarios suitable for the small screen, the book is thematically organised into night & day, exteriors & interiors, & special situations including magic hour, candlelight & firelight, moonlight, torchlight, vehicle interiors, & green/blue screen, as well as providing examples from within the studio for each of these settings. Using the latest technology & developments in the practice, Palmer illustrates how cinematographers can effectively use lighting within a variety of situations. Palmer works through each example by illustrating & describing the setup with the corresponding finished film frames to show the final effect of the lighting achieved so cinematographers can easily apply & translate it to their own work.
Including practical advice for working in the industry & tips for low-budget & student settings, this is an accessible & creative guide to producing visually compelling footage that translates the script to the screen. Ideal for the professional cinematographer & advanced students of cinematography looking to develop their skills.
