Hi there! Love this question.
Big picture: I treat lighting like painting with color, not just “making it bright enough.” For cinematic, scroll‑stopping content, I lean on a few signatures:
- Multi‑point setups (often 3–4 lights) to sculpt the face and separate subject from background
- Strong color contrast (think John Wick vibes: teal vs magenta, blue vs red) driven by basic color theory
- Practical lights in frame (lamps, tubes, neon) to add depth and real‑world motivation
- Controlled spill with grids/flags so light hits exactly what I want and nothing else
What kind of content are you shooting—talking-head, product, or more cinematic reels?
