      On of my favorite lighting examples is in the movie ranbo last blood. Spoiler alert. But when Rambo's neice dies in the truck with him she slowly slumps over to be lit only by the colder or bluer light of the moon (the kelvin thing confuses me sometimes but you know what I mean.) While Rambo is lit by the warmer tungsten headlights from the truck being reflected back in for a warm soft light in the dark. This works to make him appear more full of life while she looks more dead. Anyways, just thought you might like to check that out.

    As a seasoned professional photographer dipping his toes into the scary world of cinematography, this is very educational and exciting. It would be amazing to make some videos on ultra-small teams (even one-man gang) and how to achieve great results with very little budget. 2022 cameras such as the fuji Xh2s, sony and blackmagic are changing how people approach video in the future (especially with decrease in budgets and increase in deliverables). Would be an amazing series that many would learn from. Not to take anything away from traditional ways of doing things...but times be changing :)

    In my personal opinion… Lighting is the single most important aspect to video production! Even more important than the camera brand or lens brand you use! I have seen poor video quality on expensive cameras & lenses from bad lighting, but I have never seen poor video quality on even cheap cameras & lenses that had good lighting! The common denominator is light!💡
