Cinematic Lighting Techniques Explained

This episode of the Shot List series covers Part One of the basics of cinematic lighting. This includes fundamentals like the types of light, the qualities of light, essential terminology and necessary gear, and everything you need to know before you light your first scene. In Part Two, we’ll look at how to actually light subjects, backgrounds, and unique scenarios.

Cinematic lighting is something every filmmaker is after. Learning how to light a scene, interview, music video, etc. is almost always learning how to achieve “cinematic lighting.” And though cinematography in general can be daunting especially lighting, our goal here is to lay the foundation for you to be able to step on set where the real learning happens.

Cinematic lighting techniques start with knowing the various types of light and their various qualities. You should know the difference between natural and artificial light and how to best utilize both. Hard light hits the subject directly, creating sharp and distinct shadows while soft light gets diffused and scattered, creating soft and indistinct shadows.

You should know that ambient light includes any light available at a location that the crew didn’t bring and that practical lights are any sources visible in the shot. Motivated lighting means that there is a justified reason for how you’re lighting a scene. For example, if we see a firelight illuminating the subject, there should obviously be a fireplace in the room.

Another major task in cinematic lighting techniques is controlling the light. Flags and barn doors block and shape light, while diffusion materials like silks and reflectors change the quality of light from hard to soft.

The techniques and concepts behind cinematic lighting are actually quite straightforward. And once you’ve mastered the essentials, that’s when the creativity kicks in to make them your own.
