#i’m so annoyed. i’d rather the show look a bit shitty but comprehensible

i think the lack of lightning on tv shows has to do with the expectancy of realism from viewers. using light — or rather lack thereof — to cover up for awkward choreography, not-so-perfect special effects, sfx makeup, etc. because we as viewers expect everyone to deliver hyper realistic results, even though the playing field is far from even. what we’re left with is dark shows :/
