Spanish term or phrase: luces frontales superiores e inferiores
En función del lugar desde el que se emita el haz lumínico (donde se encuentre el foco) se puede hablar de **luces frontales superiores e inferiores**, según la luz incida sobre el objeto desde arriba o desde abajo, respectivamente.

En el primer caso, es decir, en el de la iluminación superior, se producen sombras cortas y duras, mientras que en el segundo caso, formas muy distorsionadas que tienden a subir hacia el techo.

top and bottom frontal lights/lighting


Explanation:
A possibility

Top lighting.
Lighting which originates from directly overhead.

This type of lighting tends to yield rather ugly shadows under a person’s eyes and nose in the case of portrait photography and so is not commonly used for portraiture. However it’s a good way to light reflective items and is very useful for product photography.

Bottom Lighting
Bottom light, also known as Halloween light, casts unflattering shadows onto a subject’s face.
