Formation Comparative lighting technologies: LEDs, fluorescent tubes, HMI and MSR, tungsten lamps
Training goals
Be able to:
- differentiate between conceptions and technical choices offered by manufacturers,
- optimise the rendering of a source for video images,
- choose the sources, correct and mix to give the optimal lighting required.
Details
Contents
Theoretical review: colorimetry: source spectre, colour temperature, colour index rendering,
- photometry: luminance, flow, lighting, rendering,
- source technologies: tungsten, HMI, fluorescent lights, LED,
- projectors: open face, PAR, soft box, atmosphere, Fresnel, cut outs.
Choosing filters and diffusion: converting and colorimetric corrections,
- comparative effects of diffusions.
Compared video rendering with different types of sources, high and low lighting tests with HD camcorder and silhouette.
Blending and correcting sources for the same image.
