lighting

This week I have been working on lighting. I have been creating a handful of mood boards on lighting such as general lighting, lighting fixtures and also a few case studies on specific types of lighting in certain environments. For my general lighting mood boards I took a look a look at lighting in areas like; on the road, in the cinema, sports halls etc. Also I had a mood board of just different light fixtures. For my case studies I chose rainforest/forest, sporting venues and stage lighting. I chose the rainforest and forest mood board as I like the way the light has to shine through the gaps in the leaves to light the area and you get good beams of light peering through. I chose the stage lighting, as it is important for concerts as it creates the mood and is often personalised towards the band playing. Also you get laser lighting that is very different as it shows the stream, which the light produces, and it stays the same diameter all the way unlike most lighting. I chose sports venues as they have direct lighting onto the area where the sport is being done and the crowd is fairly dark. Also with stadiums they use a lot of natural light to light the stadium during the day and flood lights to light the pitch/area at night, again the stands are not light.
