Lighting

LightingThere are 2 main types of lighting are often used by photographers, namely:High Key is a scene that looks more inclined to bright. The effects of high key lighting is relatively little a shadow, but it is important also some dark parts as that is not an indication that the high key over exposed.Low Key is the opposite, just the part - the part that subjects given sufficient light, while the - the other in the dark shadows. It often happens also to get the misconception that low key effect is to make the under-exposed, the correct ratio is the ratio between dark and light.Lighting has several functions, among others:Key Light, is the main source of light for a certain character somewhere in the scene. If the object moves then use some key light
Fill Light, aim to fill (fill) the shadows caused by the key light. Because it must be avoided in order not to give rise to a new shadow, it is usually placed near the camera. Fill light can also use a soft light source. The quality of the soft light that does not cause a shadow to give freedom in the placement.Back Light, placed above or behind the object to shed light on the head or over the shoulder.In the lighting is sometimes necessary special effects. Another light effect that is often used is Eye Light, a small lamp with a strong light placed near the camera. Because the light is weak then he raises the fill light in the eyes of the actor, as well as its reflection would make her eyes sparkle. Last is the background light or light set, to give light on the wall or furniture.LIGHTING
 I. Definition
            One important element is the theatrical lighting or lighting. Lighting is a lighting equipment arrangement, in this case is, to illuminate the stage to support the staging. Therefore, in the absence of light, the staging will not be visible. In general that is a function of the lighting. In theater, the lighting is divided into two: 
1. Lighting the lighting. That is only a function of lighting that illuminates the stage with its elements and the performance can be seen. 
2. Lighting the lighting. That fungsu lighting as an element of artistic performances, where beneficial to creating and supporting atmosphere in accordance with the demands of the script.
 
 II. The elements of the lighting.
            Within lighting there are some key elements that must be considered, such as: 
1. Availability of equipment and supplies. Namely the availability of sufficient lighting, cables, holders and some related equipment and electrical lighting. There is no standard for sure how much of the equipment, it all depends on the script needs to be staged. 
2. The layout and the focal point. The layout is the placement of the lights, while the focal point is the area of ​​the fall of light. In general, the placement of the lights in the play is over and from the front of the stage, so the focus point right on the stage area. In theory, the angle of placement and focus on the most effective titk was 450 on stage. But once again it all depends on the needs of the script. Another theory says ideally, Lighiting in a play (any kind of staging it) tatacahaya should illuminate every part of the stage, from the front, and back, up and down, left and right, and the middle section. 
3. Color balance. The point is the use of color harmony of light is needed. This means, lightingman must have knowledge of colors. 
4. Mastery of the tools and supplies. That is lightingman should have an understanding of the nature of light character of lighting fixtures. Tata is associated with the electric light, then you have to be careful if you're serving a light setter or the lighting.
 5. Understanding the manuscript. That is lightingman must understand the text which will be staged. In addition, it must understand the purpose and way of thinking director as 'supreme ruler' in the play.In a play, everyone plays an equal importance to each other. If one part is interrupted, it will disrupt the whole production process. Similarly, the "artisan lighting '. He also became an important part besides the director and actors, as well as make-up, stage manager, and other elements. In other words, lightingman must also have the same discipline with all the supporting performances.From the above, all of which can be achieved by learning about lighting and other supporting elements.
 
 III. The term in the lighting. 
1. light: light source, there are many, different types, such as the par 38, halogen, spot, follow light, focus light, etc.. 
2. holder: lamp holder. 
3. Cable: electrically conductive.
 4. Dimmer: tool to adjust the light intensity. 
5. play light: light that serves to illuminate the stage as a whole. 
6. foot light: light to illuminate the bottom of the stage. 
7. wing light: light to illuminate the side of the stage. 
8. front light: light to illuminate the stage from the front.
 9. back light: lighting to illuminate the back of the stage, usually placed at the back of the stage. 
10. silhouette light: light to form silhouette on a backdrop. 
11. upper light: light to menerang the center of the stage, usually placed directly above the stage. 
12. tools: lighting support equipment, such as circuit breaker (fuse), pliers, scissors, insulators, solder, hammer, tespen, cutter, avometer, switch, stopcontact, jumpers, etc.. 
13. series of light, which is installed in series or individually. (1 channel 1 lamp) 
14. parallel light, which is installed in parallel (1 channel some lights).
 As previously disclosed above, the simple things are what generally should be known by lightingman, then whether or not tatacahaya depends on understanding, experience and creativity of lightingman. Bottom line, if you want to be 'true lightingman', you have a lot to learn and try (trial and error).





PRINCIPLES ORGANIZATION OF LIGHTThe course reviews the theory in terms of light and a staging mencahayakan benefits. Pedestal given to the following: 
• The function and quality of light 
• Aspects of the light rekabentuk 
• The principle of electrically; recognize shapes series and parallel and use Ohm's law to solve the problem of currents, obstacles, Voltan and energy. 
• optical aspect - namely aspects of reflection and refraction of light in a variety of surface types and characteristics reflector of light refraction
 • The type and function of the lights used in theater 
• The use color in a staging that includes about color theory and color guard 
• System pemalap [dimmer system] - manual and memory 
• Creating a 'light plot' and form 'lighting cues'
