  • Need Lighting Tutorial Suggestions

    Posted by Mike Thomas on November 14, 2011 at 2:42 am

    Up to this point my set lighting skills have been poor to average at best. I need to really crack down and learn some serious lighting skills for my diy filmmaking. I need recommendations for online videos, dvds and/or books which can teach me the techniques without losing me on the technical/philosophy side. AND I need the learning to come from a real industry experienced pro. Any suggestions?

    Dick Reisner’s lighting tips
    Or grab any older edition Zettl video textbook from Amazon, they are the college video textbooks and even older editions contain good basic info.
