In this lesson, we explore the process of painting color keys for film production. You'll learn what color keys are and how they help plan the mood, time of day, and lighting details in key shots. We discuss the importance of lighting in storytelling and how to gather effective references. Through a practical demonstration, we create color keys for different lighting scenarios—nighttime, daytime, and foggy environments—using a simple story sequence. This lesson provides insights into planning and executing lighting to enhance the emotion and narrative of a scene.
