lighting set up - sin city

powerful, superhero lighting set up. (like in sin city) two spot lights 45 degrees behind the subject. black mat covering part of the light that shines into the lens (to remove lens flare) this creates a highlight around the character. make sure the light is consistent (meter up) (in video its f.9)
next step to light front of face by using a front soft box.


Set up the rear rim or "modeling" lights to create highlights on the model's form and curves. Use a "flag" to block direct light from the modeling lights entering the camera causing lens flares.

Meter the highlights from both sides to ensure they are both at the same f-stop, so one side isn't brighter. Adjust the distance (or power) of the lights as necessary.

Set up a front soft box directly in front of, and above, to provide lighting for the model's face and torso. This light is set at a higher f-stop than the back lights so it's not as bright as the highlights.
