The original photos for this post are no longer online, but the lesson remains: day interiors on TV sets are often lit from outside the windows with big lights, so the actors can move freely and the scene still feels like daylight.

Try it on your next shoot: put your strongest light outside a window and see how natural the room feels. Share your results in our Lighting & Grip forum.
