How is lighting for film different from lighting for a theatrical production?

Lighting for a film is more directed on what the camera sees in relation to the actors. Lighting for a theatrical production uses all angles and creates the right lighting for all aspects of the performance that the director wants to be visualized.

Film is easier with a still image .Theatrical production is all look in one direction and the light is pointing towards the stage.

Idon’t think it’s true but if it is then you should make up a case then prove it
