Still Image from Verosky's Three Rules of Lighting for Photography Video |
I've copy and pasted four video tutorials as seen on Ed Verosky's YouTube Channel that I thought you might like to check them out. These video tutorials should be watched in the order that they appear below and may help you better understand how to light your subject in the studio.
Some of the information in the tutorials you have received from the modules in your online classrooms although it is always a good idea to hear it from a different source as well. Please click on the keywords below to activate the links for each video.

Three-Point Lighting for Portrait Photography

In the fourth video titled Three-Point Lighting for Portrait Photography is a more "in depth" lesson in the sense that you'll be learning how to use more equipment to set up a successful photograph. In this video, Verosky discusses the key light, the fill light and a back light. The important thing to note about this video is that Three-Point Lighting defines the edge with a highlight, which helps to separate the subject from the background. In the image below, I'd like you to notice how the edge of her fingers have a highlight on them, which separates her from the black background.
Ed Verosky also has a fantastic blog that I highly recommend you look into. He has a number of interesting articles and tutorials throughout the blog. He also includes posts on contemporary photographers that you might like to see as well. To check out Verosky's blog, click here.
