Examining how light can be used to express meaning.

 " Light is everting. It expressses ideology, emotion, colour, depth, style. I can efface, narrate, describe. With lighting, the ugliest face, the most idiotic expression can radiate with beauty or intelligence." - Frederico Fellini, Director.

Today we were taight in depth about, reading lights. What we can tell from a scence by the use of lights. Light is used for the representation of ideology etc. Certain lighting aluminates the meaning of the scene and sets a particular tone, to help the audience understand the narrative of the film.

We also breifly touched upon a Feminist film theorist, Laura Mulvey.
