do you mean that you photographed this image from a movie set or you copied the picture from somewhere else and post processed it? can't quite link the title to what you want to show here.

it was actually a student film and i shot that and the still as well.

are you looking for critique on the processing done or the content of the picture?

slackjack · 25th November 2006

just fire away, although i was looking more from a lighting perspective.

title = Naturalistic lighting

+

picture of 2 guys looking up at something (a lamp?)

are they gazing at some kind of light known as 'Naturalistic Lighting'?

otherwise if you're asking if this lighting works for the scene, i think it's only fair that the viewer be informed what this scene is about.

well they are supposed to be hiding in a cellar and there are people above em. its meant to simulate a single light bulb source from overhead, which we of coz see in a wider shot.

hi, this works for me...
I've tried shooting stills for films and it's honestly something I find pretty difficult to do.
yours is a good shot with many stories to tell.

cheerios

Why do you call this a naturalistic lighting?

well its supposed to simulate a single light bulb source so u gotta take note of shadow direction, darkness of background drawers, contrast on face and so on and so forth

Was this picture taken with a strong natural light, or was there an artificial light source?

it was a set up, so there are "artificial" lights...
