e.g in this image, lighting is used to make the room feel cold, empty and depressing

lighting is used effectively in the shot of the real world kitchen to make it feel dull, depressing and lonely. this is achieved by using a cold light through the cloudy window, the director has chosen this lighting to remind us that Caroline's real world is boring and lifeless compared to the other world behind the door  

in the other kitchen we see more things and a sense of delight,security welcoming.

lighting is used to create this by through the use of a yellow/orange warm light from a bulb above the table. the director has done this to highlight the positive relationship between Caroline and her other parents. whilst her real parents ignore her, the other parents acknowledge and want to spend time with her, this is re-enforced by the contrasting use cold and white light in Caroline's real world 

shot one- colourful,magical, enchanting,bright and dream
shot two- sad, dull, lonely, blank.

lighting in the first shot make's her real world dull and the other wold colourful,magical and enchanting.this is done by using bright colours that bring your eyes attention to them. the directors made the colours like this to make the other world look nicer and Coraline's into a dull,lonely and blank.
