Testing- Lighting

I will test my lighting in this task- I hope to find the optimal camera settings as well as test to see if my lighting actually works- as I do not have any proper lighting equipment, I have fashioned my lighting out of heavy duty torches, elastic bands and coloured cellophane sheets.
f/4.5, exposure 1/25, ISO 12800

f/4.5, exposure 1/80, ISO 25600

f/4.5, exposure 1/4, ISO 1000

f/4.5, exposure 1/4, ISO 5600

Testing for blue lighting

Testing for pink/purple lighting

After this test, I found that f/4.5, exposure 1/4, ISO 1000 was the best settings to use. Also, the equipment worked really well- as the torches are handheld, they are easy to move and change the colour of if we needed too. Something else I discovered was that I can replicate a passing streetlight by using an orange cellophane sheet and moving the light past the subject's head.
