How Insecure Properly Lights Black Actors. For decades, photo and video equipment was designed and tested with only white subjects in mind. Lighting darker skin tones takes a different approach than lighting pale ones. Ava Berkofsky, director of photography on HBO’s Insecure, tells Mic how her team beautifully lights the show’s black actors, and Mic reporter Xavier Harding demonstrates some of the techniques below.

Good lighting benefits from teamwork involving multiple departments. According to Berkofsky, the makeup department should use a reflective moisturizer on dark faces. The lighting crew should maximize the surface area of light, and the camera crew should shape that light with a polarizing lens. Harding explains some of the racist history of photographic technology, and the marginalizing effect of treating white models as the “default” use case.

Lighting darker skin tones takes a different approach than lighting. Watch The Infidel Online IMDB. Electronic Arts just kicked off E3 2017 with an earlier than usual Saturday press conference. EA showed some Star Wars, some sports, some car chases, and a brand-new.

Cameras didn’t have to be built to capture white skin more easily than dark skin; those deficiencies were built into the system by carefully optimizing the technology for white skin alone. As Buzz. Feed’s Syreeta Mc. Fadden writes, Kodak only introduced black- friendly film stocks after complaints from chocolate and furniture advertisers.

On Priceonomics, Rosie Cima talks about how the TV industry accepted and perpetuated this bias, and how filmmakers struggled to overcome it. At Jezebel, Dodai Stewart has explored some contemporary implications of this history, like poor lighting of minorities on high- budget shows and films, and apparently white- washed magazine photos. Because of conscious choices by the film technology industry, photographers still have to learn “special” techniques for properly shooting a vast portion of the population. Even in film school, Berkovsky tells Mic, she wasn’t taught how to film nonwhite people. Digital photography has provided a lot of solutions, but as Buzz. Feed’s Mc. Fadden explains (and MIT Media Lab’s Joy Buolamwini further explores), it inherited a lot of white- skin biases. So Insecure’s Berkovsky has a suggestion for dark- skinned people grabbing a selfie: Stand by some soft light and turn three- quarters toward it.

Everything EA Announced At E3 2. Electronic Arts just kicked off E3 2. Saturday press conference.

EA showed some Star Wars, some sports, some car chases, and a brand- new game from Bio. Ware called Anthem. There was also a live drumline, in case you thought E3 needed more drumlines. EA didn’t announce much—the only two new games were Anthem and a prison break game called A Way Out—and most of the conference was dedicated to sports and Battlefront II.

Let’s run it all down. Star Wars: Battlefront II Aims To Fix The First Game’s Problems.

EA dedicated the entire back half of its show to Star Wars: Battlefront II, focusing mostly on multiplayer, which will span all eras of Star Wars. All post- release multiplayer add- ons will be free this time around, meaning that everyone will be able to keep playing the game “for years to come,” according to presenter Janina Gavankar. Gavankar, who plays the main character in Battlefront II’s single player, stared down the audience in character as she took the stage.

It was a fun, if slightly awkward moment in an otherwise sleepy press conference.)They then showed a bunch of live multiplayer gameplay set on a map on Naboo. There was a ton going on, and it was hard to tell how it’ll actually feel to play. EA says the game will have more vehicles, more customization, more abilities, more classes, and more options in general. They also say they’ve fine- tuned the gunplay so that everything feels better than it did in the first game.

At the very least, it’ll be cathartic to hop in a tank and blow the shit out of Naboo. You can find more info on the Battlefront II announcements, including EA’s press release, here. Bio. Ware’s New Game Is Called Anthem. We also got a teaser for Anthem, a brand new series from Bio. Ware. It looks like a sci- fi game with lush environments, big monsters and characters who wear suits of power armor. The teaser was scant on details, but EA says it’ll share more at the Microsoft press conference tomorrow.

A Way Out: A Promising Co- Op Prison Break Game. EA will also be publishing a new game called A Way Out, which is being made by the people behind the fantastic Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons. It’s a cinematic prison break game where you control one of two unlikely partners thrown together in a common cause. The game is built entirely as a co- op experience, meaning you can’t play it solo, though I’m sure some intrepid gamers will make it work. It can be played in splitscreen or online. Brothers was a really good game (if you haven’t played it, play it!), and A Way Out looks like a promising evolution of a lot of the ideas that game explored.

Need For Speed Payback Looks Fast, Furious. EA shared some new information about Need For Speed Payback, which sure looks like a Fast And The Furious game. Which I am totally in favor of. Gameplay- wise, it looks like some kinda combination of Split/Second and Burnout, which, also, sounds good. Battlefield 1 Will Get Night Maps And A Russian Expansion. The already wildly popular shooter Battlefield 1 is getting two night maps, which debut this summer. Because Battlefield 1 wasn’t chaotic enough.

They also announced In The Name of the Tsar, an expansion that will add new maps from World War 1's eastern front. The expansion will add six new maps featuring the Russian army along with “the iconic women’s battalion of death.” That expansion hits in September. Lastly, they teased a new small- squad competitive mode, saying they’ll share more details at Gamescom in August. Madden 1. 8 Gets A Story Mode. Madden 1. 8 kicked off the show as EA announced a new Long.

Shot game type, which adds a sports movie- like narrative to the game. It looks melodramatic as hell. Fifa 1. 8 is ‘Fueled By Ronaldo’Fifa 1. I also very much enjoyed their use of the phrase “FUELED BY RONALDO.” Like Madden 1. Fifa 1. 7 character. NBA Live 1. 8 will combine street ball with NBA tournament play.

We also got a quick look at NBA Live 1. And that about does it for EA. We’ll be covering E3 for the next week, with news, liveblogs, podcasts, videos, and more.
