Lighting in the studio Split lighting Loop lighting Rembrandt lighting Butterfly lighting Split lighting is exactly as the name implies – it splits the face exactly into equal halves with one side being in the light, and the other in shadow Loop lighting is made by creating a small shadow of the subjects noses on their cheeks. To create loop lighting, the light source must be slightly higher than eye level and about 30-45 degrees Rembrandt lighting Rembrandt lighting is named this because the Rembrandt often used this technique of lighting in his paintings Butterfly lighting You can identify Butterfly lighting with the butterfly shaped shadow that is created under the nose.This is achieved by placing the main light above and the camera. Broad vs short lighting Broad lighting means that the face is slightly turned away from centre, and the side of the face which is toward the camera (is broader) is in the light. This produces a larger area of light on the face, and a shadow side which appears smaller. Broad lighting is sometimes used for “high key” portraits. This type of lighting makes a person’s face look wider. Short Lighting The shadowed side of the face is closest to the camera. It is great for making faces look longer and more slender.
