The research also analyses the artistic elements in the works of the cinematographer (Abdulaziz Fahmi) in the 1960s and 1970s, who was known for his technical and artistic level in his use of lighting in cinematography. His films are considered an important milestone in the history of cinematography, Starting from "Al-Mostahil" (The Impossible) and "Zawjati Wal Kalb" (My Wife and the Dog) to "Fajr Youm Jadid" (New Day's Dawn) and "Al-Mummya" (The Mummy), these are prominent marks in his journey in the history of Egyptian cinema, where they had a great impact on the cinematic level that requires review and analysis of his important works in which he cared about expressing drama and continuously conveying feelings to the audience By emphasizing several recurring light crises in one film, they became crises in the films of Director of Photography Abdel Aziz Fahmy. .
