The Bear from Toy Story 3

This is Lotso Bear from Toy Story 3. He is lit with an top light. We learned in class that on people, top lights hide the face and give an abstract look. Lotso is illuminated, and is lit selectively, and the like helps to sculpts him and show dimensions. It is high intensity. This lighting lets you know Lotso is indoors. It tells you the mood is serious, secretive, and possibly dangerous such as an interrogation or a mafia meeting. It also gives the scene a comedic effect since the lighting is contrasting with the subject. If Lotso were lit with natural light or something softer and more colorful, it would make sense because he is a teddy bear. The edges are very soft, and it looks like the like source is not far above him based on how the intensity is mainly on the top of his head and not more spread out.
