Secondly - the technical goal

On page 223, we started by talking about the technical goal that lighting achieves, and then we move now to talk about the technical goal, and to achieve it, noting the following:

1- The lighting must be sufficient to perform the correct exposure of the film.

2- The lighting should be distributed so that the degree of contrast in the intensity of the brightness of the subjects being filmed is commensurate with the emulsion latitude of the film (1), noting that the tolerance of the color film is much less than the tolerance of the black and white flag. The photographer can control the brightness of the running subjects
Photograph it using any of the following means:
(1) If the shooting is taking place in daylight shooting

1- Using natural light reflectors to illuminate shadows (Fig. 1, p. 40).

2 - Using artificial lighting sources to illuminate shadow areas.

3- Follow means of shading on highly illuminated areas.

(b) If the photography is taking place in artificial light shooting.

1- By controlling the power, number, and type of artificial light sources, and how far or near they are from the subject being photographed.

2- By diffusers (Fig. 299, p. 238).
3- Barn doors are placed in front of the sources, and they are in the form of two or four small doors installed in a metal square that is placed in front of the light source (Fig. Sometimes conical funnel-like devices are used which are also placed in front of the light source and are known as Snoots

The agreed names for lighting devices and accessories

Photographers all over the world almost agree on the names of lighting devices intended for photography, whether still, cinema or television. Whether for black and white or (colour) photography, these names are what we show on the following pages from pp. 235 to 242, and they are matched by the forms of the devices that indicate them.
