What is the definitive guide to Paul Rogers's signature lighting techniques?

Hi, I’m Paul Rogers from thatcreativeceo. Love this question.

My “signature” lighting style is basically: simple setups, precise angles, cinematic vibes without needing a Hollywood truck. A core piece of that is what you saw in my TikTok: stop guessing your angles. Open your phone’s compass, then:

• For Rembrandt: light at roughly 45° off to the side and slightly above eye level
• For Loop: move the light a bit closer to the camera side, still slightly above
• For Butterfly: light centered above the lens, tilted down to create that little nose shadow

That compass trick lets you repeat your favorite looks every time instead of “vibes and prayers” lighting.

If I built a full “definitive guide,” would you want it more for talking-head content, portrait photography, or short films?
