whore 11,447 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I can’t see the references but I assume it’s the music video directors who are becoming popular and defining a certain look. Whoever directed “Hotline Bling” really set a trend for lighting, if that’s what you’re referring to Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneaky Oliver 22,109 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I think they are just vibrant colors this magenta+blue combination was really a trend for the past years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfect Celebrity 1,556 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I think it’s just a normal lighting element to use in videos and photos. I’m in art school for this and it’s one of the first lighting techniques we were taught to use. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FfFfFfFF 55,739 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Tumblr-ish, indie music videos were the first one to use pink lights and this kind of aesthetic. But I think it's pretty common, wouldn't call it a trend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JazzGa 14,620 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 You're just watching recent music videos. If you watched videos from the 70s and 80s you would see lots of pink stage lighting too.

RabbitHeart 793 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I think pink + blue neon lights (some call them "bisexual lighting") were known as a very dramatic cinematic color combo that became really popular in blockbuster films around 2010 or so and, with the revitalized desire for music videos to be cinematic, it became a popular music video aesthetic as well! some movies that have used it prominently recently are Moonlight and Drive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
