Exercise 2, Expressive Lighting

By Carriva

By Craig Ferguson

Both images shown here are low lit pictures, one is an oil painting and the other is a photograph. The light source is coming from below their face. In the photograph it is directly below the face, whereas the painting’s lighting is more off to the right and down.

Chapter 3 Take Home Question

Using fast fall off for a face cream commercial seems a bit strange, maybe if you only use it in the beginning.  You’re trying to accentuate the skin and using fast fall of will hide a lot of the fast. If you use more of a flat lighting or key light you will illuminate the face and skin, showing off more of what the face cream can do for the customer.

A Hard Day's Night Response

They had the option of doing colored photos but they chose to mostly shoot even their pictures in black and white. Along with “A Hard Days Night,” where you see the comical, natural side of The Beatles, a lot of their pictures show their human side and how young they were at the start of their fame.

Group Presentations

For the group assignment my group consisted of myself, Jaymee Kruysman, Derek Ayala, John Homenuk, and Gabrielle Gale. We had to show the class how audio can change perception. We took some scenes from Halloween and showed it with the original audio and some scary horror music, than with the song from the ice cream truck and then finally with Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes" from the movie "Say Anything" because there was a part that Micheal Myers held up a boombox.

Margaret Bourke-White

 

Margaret-Bourke-White was born in 1904 in the Bronx, NY.  She was very influenced by her parents.  Margaret-Bourke-White felt trapped at Cornell University, and once she graduated with an education and after getting divorced, the world would soon know Margaret-Bourke-White through her pioneering photojournalism. What I admire about her is that she made a name for herself as a successful woman in the 1920’s.  She took chances and was able to find herself in very interesting and unique places in order to get her shot.  From her photos, she seemed like she enjoyed adventure and I admire that about her.

Reaction to The Diving Bell and The Butterfly

“The Diving Bell and The Butterfly” was a french film done through the eyes of another.  How we saw the film was through Jean-Dominique, who had a stroke and was in the hospital.  I liked how the scenes were cut and how they portrayed the way he saw things. The lens shutter flashed as if he was blinking which was pretty cool.  The director put some cool aesthetics in, like when Jean-Dominique was being wheel chaired through the hospital to go see the mother of his children, he saw his reflection for the first time as he was passing by windows and glass doors, he saw himself very briefly each time but he could tell that he looked completely different.
