Evidence of using lighting technique

 Although the majority of my film was shot using natural outside lighting, when it came to filming some of the inside scenes i required some brightness,I attached a small light to the camera in order to achieve my desired look.I felt it was important to get the level of brightness just right as I didn't want to come across to harsh.
