Lighting Fundamentals & Techniques

Master infrared lighting with repeatable checklists to avoid color shifts, set exposure and focus for 720nm, and build a reference card for consistent results.

Prevent visible seams in panoramas by standardizing exposure and white balance, taming specular highlights, and using a 60‑second lighting checklist.

Use ambient mapping, bounce, power budgeting, and skin tone checks to keep documentary lighting quiet, color-faithful, and true to the scene.

Master light painting in tight spaces by controlling heat, noise, and power. Learn repeatable setups for color-true trails, quiet rigs, and stable runtimes.

Learn a repeatable outdoor macro lighting workflow to freeze motion, tame reflections, and keep color consistent - using compact gear and simple checklists.
