Real close Michael, Stanley if I remember correctly did not use the
terms key and fill (those being more photography terns and uses) but
was big on the warm and cool concept at 45 deg angles. A couple of
years ago I had a guy who was a photographer who wanted to learn
about theatre lighting with a community theatre group I do a lot of
work with. He still wants to call all front lights a key or fill
lights. It is a constant battle with him and a couple of the other
designers who keep asking me what he is talking<br>
about.<br>

<p>Herrick, when I started out in stage lighting, I
had three battens of sprayed, open lamps to play
with, and three dimmers. Amber, blue, and open
white. This was back in the late 1950s. I like to
think that I have learned something since then,
notably from an American guru. whose name escapes me
for the moment. He pioneered the key, fill, and
backlight technique.<br>
