When it came to lighting the set we placed the backboards and the rest of the set in the studio and sat five people around the table to represent our four guests and host. We found that the best way to light the set and our host/guests was to use Three point lighting. Three point lighting is when there is a key light that is usually a powerful spot light (tungsten light) aimed at your subject, this creates a shadow down one side. To counter this, we used a fill light (cool light) and pointed it at the other side of the subject. After we lit the subject we had to add another spot light behind the subject, this was to bring the subject away from the background. Although, doing this sometimes creates a halo effect on the top of the subjects head. however, doing this brings them out from background which looks better on camera.
