Lighting Research for the Billboard and Website

Lighting

By far the most common shot type used in magazines of the lifestyle genre, are extreme long shots showing landscapes of certain areas. There are many different ways in which I can use lighting to give my shots certain effects. The first type of lighting which I could use is side lighting.


In this type of lighting the source of light comes from the side. This type is very good at creating a long shadow and contrast. It can also add depth to the image. 

This may work well on the Billboard for my magazine as I will be able to interest my audience by attracting them to the billboard by using an image of an area which I wish to talk about with a lighting effect such as side lighting which may interest my audience as it will add depth and contrast to my image.

It would also be suitable for the website for similar reasons as the website as it will draw the audience to the site.

This kind of lighting puts the sun in front of the image and uses it to create so stunning lighting effects. Again this is something which I may consider using on my Billboard, again to attract my audience to my magazine.
