Lighting Plan

High key lighting is more often used for Action genre

films. High-key lighting involves the fill lighting to be

increased. With this even illumination, the scene appears

very bright and soft, with very few shadows in the frame.

In my film “The Final Fight” I have used high-key

lighting to give a clear perception to my audience of the

mis-en-scene, for example: the wooden plank the

character wakes up from, the competition brochure he

reads, etc. I had to use high-key lighting moreover so that

I could show the morning after my character had dreamt

about the fight.
