Low Key lighting is used to accentuate the contours of an object by throwing areas into shade while using a fill light to illuminate the subject and control contrast. Let Infinite Skills author Andy Anderson show you how to take an ordinary image and add a dramatic low key effect with the click of a button.

In the real world, light intensity diminishes naturally the further lit objects are from the light source. The Light Falloff feature in After Effects CS5.5 gives you the controls you need to simulate natural illumination falloff in a 3D scene—or create other light intensity effects.
