Overview of class/ What I learned: Before entering the classroom, we worked in groups to practice taking different shots. This week we discussed the three types of lighting. Key lighting lights up the face. Fill light adds extra light needed to illuminate. Back light illuminates the object from behind. We also discussed the three part production process. Pre production includes planning, writing, scheduling, assigning,and location scouting.  Location scouting requires looking for outlets, a place that is easy to light, not too shady, and where you can set up equipment easily. 

Evaluation: Doc Chris enthusiastically spoke to the class about three point lighting and the production process. As a class we worked in groups to learn how to appropriately use the three point lighting system. Doc Chris went around the room to make sure each student learned how to properly use the three point lighting system.

Expectations: I expect to apply the three point lighting system to the shots that I take in the future.
