When shooting beauty commercials you will have to light a variety of different skin tones and utilize a variety of different styles. By learning the fundamentals of beauty lighting, you'll be able to create flattering light on anyone's face. Director and DP Valentina Vee shows us how to light for beauty for 3 different styles and skin tones.
Lighting for beauty commercials encapsulates a variety of different scenarios, and the key is to match the style of your visuals to the desires of the client. You can create everything from creating a bright, high-key look to highlight skin tones, to a cinematic, low-key style, that accentuates your talent's features. Beauty lighting can require intricate lighting designs, allowing you to express your inner creativity, while also giving you the opportunity to please your clients.
In this video, Valentina discusses the importance of soft light and tailoring your style to your client's needs, while also acknowledging, that you can still achieve beautifully cinematic results without soft light. The commercial look requires the softest, and brightest lighting design, while the 80s vintage look utilizes a warmer, hazier quality. Lastly, the avant-garde look throws caution to the wind and incorporates hard light, slashes, and intense color contrast to create cinematic imagery.
By mastering beauty lighting you'll be able to create stunning portraits and commercials, that highlight both the talent's and the client's desired features. These techniques don't only apply to commercial cinematography, but also grant you the ability to light faces of any kind. The skills learned from beauty lighting are linked to being able to tailor the look and style of the lighting to the needs of the story.

This was awesome! Living in South Africa I’ve been seeing a lot of mixed lighting setups in our TVC’s lately, especially using orange and green gels... really brings out the colourful rich African vibe well, especially against the typical European style commercial look.

Great video as always. I think a really great use of beauty lighting is in the movie Neon Demon. It's a dark look at the world of fashion models, so they use techniques from beauty film/photography and combine it with dark and ominous visuals. Not an easy task to combine these two elements, but I think they pulled it of.

That "hazy 80s vibe" is actually created by the medium back then, which was film. But I liked how you could "emulate" it using that little trick with the light.

First off, really appreciate the way you deliver knowledge about lighting in this series - watching each episode makes me want to create. Secondly, I’m not into beauty business but quiet recently I watched the new J'Adore Absolu commercial from Dior and I have to say I’m pretty impressed and inspired from the cinematography point of view. The whole luxury, goldish feeling of this commercial is accomplished so well by lighting whole scene with warm and soft source (which could be tricky on stage that large). You also got this moody, hazy, atmospheric shot with rim lighting on the models at the beginning and contrast silhouette lighting of the talent at the end. Beautiful 👌 The cinematography of this commercial is so on point that it really gets into my head - or maybe I’m exaggerating and it’s just scantily clad Charlize Theron 😃😃😃

Michael Bay's Victoria's Secret 'A Night Of A Thousand Fantasies' 2011 Promo shoot. It's all of these concepts cranked up to 11. I'm not a fan of the editing, but the photography is stellar. I am particularly impressed with how he's able to use saturation rich film and still capture precise skin tones. How he soft lights the talent but hard lights everything else for contrast. And the use of shadows to create contour but just enough not mess with the colors on the talent's skin. Add to that his signature camera moves, his demanding directorial choices, sets and choreographies. I saw a behind the scenes and you can see that it's him making those razor sharp choices, he was even operating camera himself. A lot of the techniques and choices from that promo were addressed here and I learned a lot. Rewatching that promo I was just like-- Ohhhhh so that's why. Thanks for this video!! :D

This is awesome! I never thought about utilizing the two floppies to help contour the face like that! I'm not sure if it counts as a standard beauty commercial, but I saw a 2016 Shiseido creative ad a while back that had a cool soft narrative/beauty look to it.

Not to mention the whole invisible cameras on the mirrored-wall stairs. Simply amazing.

love the video, would love a similar one with different types of corporate interview lighting! question for me is why do we not see more about the ls mini 20? I own 3 aputure 672 panels and one lightstorm 120d. They are all great soft lights but im thinking about adding a couple small hard lights to my kit for hair light, background light i can shape or dramatic looks. I have no idea if the ls mini is powerful enough for me? How does it compare it brightness to the 672 panels? Id love my kit to be a mix of 2 panels and 2 hard lights but see very little reviews on the mini 20

Loved this! Would dig a video on diy cutters or filtering light with home made pieces. I can't remember a particular commercial but I do vaguely remember some Calvin K or perfume ad where the hazy / prism effect was all over (lol, most of the commercials) but seriously, I dig that effect but also feel it should be used super carefully! Would LOVE A LIGHT! Thanks for the tutorials guys

I've been really blown away about the lighting on the music video by 'Anne-Marie & James Arthur - Rewrite The Stars'. The soft lighting looks crazy flattering there, especially on Anne Marie's face. Still can't figure out how they did it from this video and would love your take on it!
@HaydnRushworth-Filmmaker
@HaydnRushworth-Filmmaker 5 лет назад
I'm often blown away but the gorgeous beauty imagery of music videos and I'm constantly trying to work out how much of the effect is... 1 - LIGHTING 2 - MAKEUP 3 - POST PRODUCTION, SKIN-SMOOTHING VFX Case in point, Arana Grande's video for Thank U, Next, especially one of the opening scenes from 0:42 seconds to 1:05. I'd LOVE to replicate that look in a short film but all I have to work with is my small collection of Yongnuo LED lights (1 x spot, 2 x wands and a small 300 LED unit). So, two questions: Q.1 - How close to that look could I get if I had great lighting? Q.2 - What lighting would I need in order to get as close to that look as possible? :-)

To be honest beauty commercials are so similar to each other these days that it’s tricky to pick one - the only one that gets into my head Is Daisy Dream by Marc Jacobs from 2014 🌼🌼🌼 It’s funny because after all of these years reviewing it cinematography-wise there is nothing special - only natural, quite harsh lighting, amateurish pull back shots and fade in/fade out effects with the clouds and soft 80’s lookin image. Anyway - I kind of love it ❤️ it is so slightly off in the best that it creates this dreamy atmosphere which matching the advertised product so well 👌 That’s the proof how important it is to trigger certain feelings in the viewer, which will stay in his head much stronger than nice looking frames. After checking who was director of this ad I’m not surprised its experienced and valued director Sofia Coppola 🎬 creating your own style is so important to really stand out 😉

Even though this would not be considered beauty in terms of lightning i would suggest David Lynchs Commercials for Gucci, YSL and in favor this Jil Sander Spot ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fTQP8JaZbPM.html which features some interesting Scenes which probably only David Lynch is allowed to do in context of beauty/cosmetics commercials. Last Week i visited an photo exhibition showing David Lynchs "Nudes" Project, which also features some beautful photography work. Very mysterious and simply stunning.
