STUDY: VIDEO LIGHTS
I needed to learn more about lights.
Lights are important for videos.
Without lights, details blur.
Without lights, a white coat might look gray.
Without lights, my eyes might look brown instead of blue and copper.
Lights can trick the viewer.
Soft, bright lights make a cat look happy.
Or make a cat look innocent.
A few hard lights make a cat look mean.
Or they can make a cat look like a fighter.
Ghost-cat videos only work if the light is right.
Innocent-cat videos only work if the light is right.

It looks like she’s swimming strong.

Quincy likes strong light.
“You need to see details of the food,” he says.

“You need soft light for the meal,” he says.
Lights can fool the viewer. They can make mean cats look innocent. Or innocent cats look like fight cats.
