"balloon light"의 정의 및 의미

What is a "balloon light"?

A balloon light is a type of lighting used in filmmaking and photography to produce a soft, diffused light over a large area. It consists of a large, round, inflatable balloon that covers the light source. When the light is turned on, it shines through the balloon, creating a gentle, even illumination that reduces harsh shadows and evenly lights the scene. Balloon lights are often used for shooting interviews or scenes where a natural, soft light is desired, and they are helpful for providing a flattering light on subjects.
