Abstract: Color lighting in TV studios is discussed as a means of producing accurate color rendition in the TV picture. The spectral distribution of light in relation to vision, color perception and picture color rendition is considered. The unsuitability of degrees Kelvin as a guide to spectral quality is proposed. The importance of simultaneous contrast in relation to color perception is emphasized, and the use of contrast in connection with background and surround lighting is discussed. Methods of producing and blending colored light are reviewed and suggestions made concerning filters and color-mixing systems.
