Cinematography Tutorial - Lighting for Darkness

In this cinematography tutorial, I show some of my tips for creating scenes that look dark even though we're using film lights so the audience can see what's happening. Film makers often need to create scenes that are dark and moody. A mistake they make is lighting a scene with minimal light and then boosting the ISO of their camera. I talk about what it means to "light for your sensor," how to use shadow to make dark scenes, and some mistakes to avoid.
