While looking around on youtube, I found two videos I thought were worth sharing from the same channel. The first is a short 6-7 minute video essay titled "The Basics of Lighting Film Noir"
You'll notice a lot of common comments to the 1970s article assigned in last week, but there's more of an industry perspective and pulling back of the curtain about how these classically noir images were generated.
The second video is another longer video essay titled and about "The Origins of Film Noir"
Although much of this material is a bit repetitive to what's already been covered
