An experienced television director suggests that the function of selective lighting is quite important in still photography and, to a certain extent, in film but that precise Rembrandt lighting is less important in standard television. Why do you think the director holds such an assumption?

What will be an ideal response?


Ans:
Standard television tends to emphasize subject clarity, especially in sitcoms, commercials, and news casting where the subject needs to be clearly seen and where dramatic effect isnt always required. Film and photography however, tend to focus on artistic value more than tv, which makes Rembrant light's selectivity important for symbolic and dramatic effect.
