What it does
Relighting fixes the light you had instead of the light you wanted: a dialogue scene shot at noon that should play at golden hour, a pickup that doesn’t match the master, a background that lights the actor from the wrong side. nolanlabs changes light and shadow; the performance, framing and timing stay.
The jobs
What you mark
Describe the light (“late golden hour, sun low behind them from the right”), or give a reference frame or the background the shot has to sit in.
What you get back
Shots it’s for
Noon to golden hour, day to blue hour, day for night.
Move the key to match the background you put behind the actor.
Match a pickup to the master, or one angle to the reverse.
Warmer, cooler, harder, softer — as light, not as a grade.
Questions
No. A grade changes the whole image evenly; relighting changes where light and shadow fall: the rim on the hair, the shadow under the chair, the side of the face that catches the sun.
No. Faces, expressions, timing and framing stay as shot; only light and shadow change on them.
