In cinematography, the use of light can influence the meaning of a shot. For example, filmmakers often portray villains that are heavily shadowed or veiled, using silhouette. There are many different instances in which different types of lighting are chosen to light the scene based upon many different factors such as the type of look the director is going for and the location in which the scene is being filmed. The screen grabs below are just a few examples of lighting that I like to see used when lighting a scene to film a portrait of someone.
By using lights and other equipment to help change the illumination of a scene, you can alter the look and feel of the shot, and that is what lighting and cinematography is all about.
