The 5 Characteristics of Light: 1. Quality
2. Brightness
3. Color
4. Spread
5. Direction
Characteristic of Light: Quality: Hard or soft shadow edge. Adjust with: Light selection, Bounce, Diffusion
Characteristic of Light: Brightness: Amount of footcandles in a given area. Adjust with: Dimming, Scrims, Reposition light.

*All characteristics affect brightness
Characteristic of Light: Color: Green content/magenta, color temperature (kelvins), party gels.
Characteristic of Light: Spread: Diameter of the beam. Adjust with: Spotting and Flooding.
Characteristic of Light: Direction: How you position the light relative to the camera and relative to the actors.
F-Stop Scale: 1, 1.4, 2, 2.8, 4.0, 5.6, 8, 11, 16. . .
Primes Vs. Zooms: Primes: fixed focal lenses.

Zooms: can change its focal length, breathe, more glass which decreases sharpness, requires more light to function.
Depth of Field: -The Wider the lense is open, the shorter the DOF
-The Longer the lense, the shorter the DOF
An ND9 will lower the light by: 3 stops (9 clicks)
An ND6 will lower the light by: 2 stops (6 clicks)
An ND3 will lower the light by: 1 stop (3 clicks)
Polarizers: -Effectively remove the humidity from the air
-Realines the light rays
-Sharpens the image
(2 stops (6clicks) down)
85 Filter: Shooting Tungsten film outside:
-It changes Tungsten film into Daylight film
-It changes your ASA down by 2/3 (2 clicks)
100 speed film with 100FC is a: 2.8 F-Stop
How many stops above wide open is the "Sweet Spot" for all lenses?: 2 Stops
How many stops does a double scrim knocks down the light by?: 1 Stop; it halves the amount of footcandles
Losing information.: *3.5-4 stops above perfect exposure, you start flatlining to white.
*3.5-4 stops below perfect exposure, you start flatlining to black.
18% grey card (middle grey): Reflects and absorbs light evenly; 18% is the average reflectance of all things that can reflect light on earth; this is a way of communicating with the processing lab.
Contrast range: The amount of light from the darkest dark to the brightest bright
Contrat Ratio: The amount of contrast in light on your subjects face (Key+Fill/Fill)
_____ inside and ____ outside are the recommended F-Stops: 2.8 Inside
5.6 Outside
Name four components to a HMI Par light that should always be together.: 1. Ballest
2. Header Cable
3. Head (Light)
4. Lense Box
Name the three parts of a functioning C-Stand.: 1. Stand
2. Gobo Head
3. Gobo Arm
To ensure maximum output of the light, describe the proper process when you setup a key light for the DP.: After the light has been erected on the stand and has been sandbagged, you spot the light all the way in, direct on the subject you are lighting, and then flood all the way out.
Red signifies what type of wire scrim found on every Fresnel light?: Double (1 Stop) & Half Double (1 Stop)
Green signifies what type of wire scrim found on every Fresnel light?: Single (.5 Stop) & Half Single (.5 Stop)

2. Have a sand bag on the big leg.
3. Keep gobo arm w/in foot print of Cstand.
MOS on slate: No sound/playback on take
Kicker: Similar to Backlight; usually a little lower than a backlight or from the side.
Eyelight: Used for a sparkle in the eyes; only used if the key light is not hitting their eyes, you can use an inkie close up or a big light really far off; usually only used in close-ups.
Set light: An architectural light that defines where the actors are (sconces, window blinds on the wall)
Fill: Soft, shadowless, ambient light used to adjust contrast, usually comes from near the camera (less contrast, increase fill light; or more contrast, decrease fill light)
Color Temperature Range: 3200 Degrees Kelvin=Tungsten
5600 Degrees Kelvin=Daylight
How many stops faster is 400 speed film than 100?: 2 Stops
It takes half as many FC to have perfect exposure for ASA at 200 than 100 for a perfect exposure at 2.8. How many FC would a 100 need for perfect exposure at 2.8? How about 200, 400, 800?: For perfect exposure at 2.8 with a film speed of:
100ASA=100FC
200ASA=50FC
400ASA=25FC
800ASA=12FC
