3-point lighting works, first. The fill light

Noni realizes her fame isn’t what she wants, and everything is falling
apart. The lighting is focused on the pictures of Noni on the wall but also
has a light coming from the top and bottom right side illuminating Noni. These
light settings want us to see these giant pictures of her and all the fame it
represents but show's how strong and angry Noni is, it’s a battle of her against
her.
The camera comes in at a wide angle to show the
stadium and the award ceremony. Noni is attending the BET Awards and performing.
This shot showcases the big audience and her costar Mr. Kelly, which foreshadows
something about to happen at the award show.
