Light and shadow – movie secrets

Different types of lighting are used to soften shadows from the main light. The right light makes the scenes realistic, distributes the necessary accents. With its help, you can add drama or shine to the hair of the actor, etc. Knowing all this wisdom, the filmmakers skillfully use them. Correctly delivered light helps in the creation of a quality film.

Nevertheless, most often in cinema, interior lamps play a more decorative, atmospheric role, while direct lighting is provided by special equipment. Designers and architects know that the quality of the interior perception depends on the quality of light and the right settings for the filming equipment. Lighting elements are becoming increasingly important. Take a closer look at the screen and you will see how imperceptibly ordinary lamps make the room cozy and harmonious, and create a special atmosphere.

Light in modern design is gaining more and more attention from designers. Thanks to interesting fixtures, interiors in famous Hollywood films become famous and recognizable. Among the stars were: Utopia (Artemide factory, the series “Star Trek”), Maxi Grand (Fontana Arte, the film “Double Life of Veronique”), Cyclos (Artemide, the James Bond film “The World Is Not Enough”).

An interesting fact is that beautiful lamps do not only exist in the lives of celebrities and act in movies, they also inspire new ideas. For example, the Tiffany lamps impressed the creators of the “Star Wars” so much that they served as an idea for creating a fantastic underwater city (Episode I: The Phantom Menace).
