In this video we take a look at creating a cinematic doorway scene, something you'll probably see in most films. The approach to lighting this scene is budget friendly and in an indie film making style whilst trying to achieve a high quality look and feel.

NOTE I did by mistake break the 180 rule, so please ignore that. The idea in the video is the lighting concept more so. Hope you can still take away some bits from this lighting tutorial.
