How The Face Changes With Shifting A Light Source

Sparkles and Wine - Teaser 

Lighting can easily be taken for granted, yet it is one of the most important things when it comes to any kind of visual art, whether that be photography, instillation or film. What makes this interesting is the effects that the light has on the face and the features, it allows us to see just what different light positions do to effect the face, the mood and the emotion of the image. However this video also uses colours to evoke more emotion on top of the lighting, this being something to bare in mind if you were trying out some of the lighting positions that have been used in this video. 
Colours will also change the mood, cold colours (such as blues, purples) making for a more vulnerable image while warmer colours (such as red, yellows, pinks oranges) making for a more aggressive or sexual appearance.
