Digital Portaiture Lighting Level 3

I should also talk a bit about how I like to use the softening or feel light I like to place it on the key side of the face this is in contrast to most common practice so let's talk a bit about three-point lighting three-point lighting consists of key light fill light and backlight or as I like to call it modeling light softening light and separating light modeling because it's the light that's responsible for representing the three-dimensional shape of the face hence modeling softening because it's responsible for softening the shadows or wrapping the light further around a face and separating because it's responsible for separating planes when analyzing lights on her face is useful to ask yourself four questions how am I able to see the main shape of the face the answer is the modeling light why can I see in the shallows is there a reflected light filling in and softly shadows Howard
