Fight scenes with interesting lighting?
polycounter lvl 13
I'll be honest, I'm trying to find some lighting inspiration for a fight scene. I was hoping you guys would have some suggestions of one's that you think are cool.
So... Anyone want to help a guy out?

maybe google some scenes from movies that cover the same topic or mood your aiming for
some random examples :
But it all depends on what you are trying to tell. If you want to portray a raw scene, for example, you should be looking into exposing the details of the skull of the characters, giving them that classical ghostly appearance. You could also keep the visual focus in the action by illuminating the environment behind the characters and keeping them in complete darkness, placing lonely lights each now and then to give a clue on who's who.
Don't forget about the environment also. The fight between Morpheus and Neo gives a sense of nobility because of the environment the action takes place in and the clothes they wear. You might want to think about where it all should happen. That environment will certainly help you illuminating it.
This whole movie is great with composition and color.
it's all silhouetted but you can perfectly make out what's happening. The lighting adds a lot to it.
