In this video tutorial, we take a look at the differences between low key and high key lighting, and how to set up both styles.<\/h2>\n

“Low key” and “high key” are lighting\u00a0terms that get thrown around a lot in meetings between directors and cinematographers. Low key lighting\u00a0refers to a scene that is dark\u00a0with high contrast. It’s not a specific setup. Rather, it’s just an idea to get the ball rolling. High key lighting, on the other hand, refers to an evenly lit, lower-contrast setup.<\/p>\n

In this video tutorial, we’ll break down both lighting styles. It’s all about controlling your light.<\/p>\n
