lighting created in casino royale

In this clip the lighting helps to convey the mood and atmosphere. It is used to guide the audiences attention to a particular object - in this clip we can see that there is shadows surrounding the young girl guiding our eyes towards her and the shot glass. This inevitably creates anticipation for the audiences. Additionally the soft lighting creates a diffused illumination and the sun also creates hard light whilst an overcast sky creates soft light. The light from the sun reflects off of the shot glass which shows the direction of the light is aimed at the girl. From this we know that the director is manipulating the light of the scene which is typically decided on two primary sources: key light and fill light.
Furthermore, backlighting is used behind where the young girl is stood to create a silhouette and this causes the edges of the subject to glow. This also causes her hair to glow and look rather fuzzy  it also gives an angelic halo effect around of the head.
