Film making and television are undoubtedly connected to lighting manipulation. They belong to the world of visual arts and the impact they have on the public depends on the ability and the vision of the production team. The importance of lighting is given by its ability to change the significance of a scene just by putting an emphasis on a different element. SHL Film Lighting London has the right specialists and equipment to bring the creative vision of the film director to life. Besides that, the company also deals with the requirements of studio filming in television, as they work with the most experienced TV lighting London specialists.

The quality of a good film stands in the ability of the crew to manipulate the visual medium in order to tell the story the way the director sees it. And the specialists from SHL Film Lighting London know better than anyone else how to portray a particular kind of character or feeling only by using the right lighting techniques. Thus, it can be said that lighting plays a very important role in the process of telling the story. But why is there any need for artificial lighting when making a film? Unlike the human eye, the camera perceives natural contrasts in a different, defective way. It is possible that the shadows will be seen as completely black, while the highlights can become entirely white. All these can only lead to artificial images and the quality of the film will be seen as bad.

Besides that, different light approaches can point out different meanings for a particular scene. Bright colors and well-lighted scenes will be identified with joy and playfulness. On the other side, dark colors carry a sense of mystery and plotting. The light can be a good identity tag for the movie. Horror movies for example will always be accompanied by a darker light. Dramatic effects can be produced by changing the angle of light or by contrasting two different types of light. Moreover, it has been proven that movies presenting an enhanced view of reality seem to be more attractive for the public. Such techniques require a trained eye and highly professional equipment.

Just like in film making, television is also based on a good manipulation of light. However, the techniques and the equipment used in TV lighting usually differ from those necessary for film lighting.
