Lighting plays a very important role in flim-making. Let's face it, if there's no light you can't see anything so there won't be any movie.
The 3 point lighting system is the most basic and fundamental rule in lighting. The first light is called the Primary Light, the second Fill Light and Hair Light. These lights help to tell the story and make the character or scene look better. For example, bad lighting can make a character's face look flat and we don't want this.
Different types of lights that are common in the industry are:
* Redheads
* Totas
* Quartz lamps * HMI lamps
* Fresnel
* Ellipsol spots
* Broads
* Backgrounds
* Beam spot projectors

Lecture 6.
Framing is a very crucial part to film-making. There are various kinds of framing and they range from wide-angle to close-up shots. These techniques help the director to ell the story by emphasizing certain elements. These elements include tension, emotion and other finer details.
Composition is defined as orderly arrangement of fragments within scenes and draws upon two subheadings.These subheadings are Static and Dynamic. Static is about the content of fixed images hence providing limited movement but Dynamic covers the effects of time.
