Glass conference rooms look modern, but all that natural light can make it difficult to control exposure, shape contrast, and create separation.
In this video, I break down how I lit multiple interview looks in a glass conference room with floor-to-ceiling windows. You’ll see how I evaluated the available daylight, used ND filters and the existing blinds to control the room’s exposure, and strategically added artificial light to shape the subjects.
I also show how the same lighting equipment was adapted for two opposing interview angles—first using the window as the key side, then dealing with it as unwanted fill while maintaining a consistent look across both interviews.
In this video:
Evaluating the sun, cloud coverage, and window direction
Controlling exterior exposure with ND filters
Using false color to evaluate contrast and separation
Balancing natural and artificial light
Adapting the setup for two opposing interview angles
Creating consistent results in an uncontrolled environment
