Still Image Analysis; Lighting



This is a still image from men in black. They have used high key lighting, which shows all the features of the characters and allows us to see everything in detail, including the colour of their skin. As the man in the middle, actor WILL.I.AM, is black and is standing in the middle, it also appears that there are filler lights that are reflecting on the other two men, which is making him appear more, which connotes that he is the main character. In addition to this, the fact that he is brought closer to the camera in comparison to the other two men beside him also gives us the idea that he is the main character. As the lighting appears to make WILL.I.AM stand out more in comparison to those standing either side of him, this connotes that he is of authority and power, which gives the audience the idea, that he could be in power of the other two men.
