Lighting

These are some lighting shots that i have taken for my photography course, but they are exactly what i need for this part of this course. These are different lighting effects, which i plan to use whilst filming.
If i was to try to create a mysterious tone, i would most likely use the effects of image number 3,6, and 7. The reason i would use these is that within image number 3 the person is slightly clear and so is the background, but there is little light, symbolising the fact of dusk, or someone who doesn't want to be seen that clearly. This effect is more increased with image number 6, as the background is barely visible, showing to the audience that we don't want location to be easily recognised, and with only the face visible of the person, it is as if the face is supposed to be remembered, or something is about to happen and the audience can't actually see this yet. But if i wanted the person to be mysterious and the location known i would use the effects shown within image 7, because there is no facial recognition, making the audience either want to know who is that person, or why doesn't the person want to be easily recognised.
