Lighting in Sci-fi

     In sci-fi, lighting is usually an important component. Often, cool toned lighting is used, as it can create a sense of unease. The use of this lighting can also make the film more visually engaging.The absence of light can also be used to create more mystery. For part of my project, I plan to film in a darker area for this purpose. Having a dimmer lighting can also help me establish setting. The lighting in this area will also likely be more cool-toned, since warmer lighting would be too "inviting".

   Many sci-fi films also have darker scenes. I'm willing to incorporate this aspect into my project, as it will fit with the tone and setting of my film opening. I can also use lighting from different sources to ensure that the scene isn't too dark and the lighting remains realistic. I can use lamps and flashlights if needed to get the desired effect for the tone of the scene. During the editing process, I can also change the darkness and exposure if needed.
