What is "cameo lighting"?
Cameo lighting is a technique used in film and photography where the main subject is illuminated with a strong, focused light while the background remains mostly dark or shadowed. This creates a high contrast that draws attention to the subject, often giving a dramatic or mysterious effect. Cameo lighting is used to highlight specific features, emotions, or actions of a character, making them stand out against the dark background, and is commonly used in scenes that require a spotlight effect or to create an intimate, intense atmosphere.
