Studio lights are specialized lighting equipment used in photography and videography to create the desired illumination for a scene. They come in various types, including softboxes, LED panels, and ring lights, each offering different qualities of light. These lights help to enhance the subject, reduce shadows, and create a professional look in images and videos. In a typical studio setup, key lights provide the main illumination, while fill lights soften shadows and backlights add depth by highlighting the subject's outline. Properly using studio lights can significantly improve the overall quality of visual content, making it more appealing to viewers.
