Light in multiplan

Instructor: Abi Feijó

Presentation: With no light there is no image. In this workshop we intend to create a conscience as to the potentialities offered by the manipulation of the light when creating the environment of the images. Multiplan allows us to illuminate, separately and independently, each one of the levels, to potentialize the contrasts (light/ dark). Quite often, illuminating a set is much more than just setting the lights and put the shadows.
