Obtain a amber lighting atmosphere: how to


Vincenzo Di Salvo

Hello everybody,

I'm new of this community. I've asked an account hoping to learn more about cinematography lighting and shooting techniques. I'm waiting for the validation.

I have a question. I love to shoot in darkness conditions, with scenes lighted by candles. I use a 2800K fill lights when necessary.
The camera is set to tungsten and I use low ISO values to avoid shadows noise.

However, the candle lights like also the fill lights give a reddish chromatism to the scene.
This happens to me but I see also in short amateur movies and it is very different by the cinema productions that show gently amber atmospheres everywhere. On the actor face like also in the scene.

Can you help me to understand how to do this ?

Thanks very much.
