The quality of your image will depend
on the lighting.
It is essential to anticipate your
shooting and adapt the lights.
If the shooting will be indoor, make
sure you have the proper equipment to
replicate daylight.

4. For the perfect lighting, use three light sources:
1) One main light, quite strong and
positioned between the subject and the
camera.
2) A second light, less strong to reduce
shadows : place it around 45 degrees on the
other side.
3) A light in the back to define the contours of
the subject.

5. There are a few simple solutions:
• If you have enough space, put the light
away from the scene.
• Create an indirect enlightening by directing
the light on a white wall.
• Put a white and translucent filter (tracing
paper, white tissue…). Make sure the lamp
doesn’t burn the filter!

light source and its shadow

6. #4-­‐ Choose your outfit
wisely
• Don’t wear a top with patterns, dots or
stripes… it can blur your image on
screen.
• Your clothing should be contrasted with
the background so you stand out from it.
• Don’t forget not to dress too warmly, it
can get really hot under projectors.

7. Before recording , put a little of cold
water on your face or use some
makeup powder.
It will help you look fresh and not too
shiny on screen.

front of the camera.

and the video will be more
pleasant to watch.
