Tungsten Lighting

 

Describe

This is a portrait of Charlotte using Tungsten lighting. Charlottle is close to the camera and the background is plain. This is a figurative piece.

Analyze

This piece has different values, but they are more neutral than dramatic. The shadows on her face and shadows from her hair add interest. The Tungsten lighting adds more contrast. This image is in focus and this was done on purpose because the purpose of this shot was to capture Charlotte's face.

Interpret

This picture was meant to focus visually on Charlotte's face. It's meant a beauty shot. The lighting is perfect for this type of portrait. This is a light image because Charlotte has a happy expression sort of like in a school photo. This was taken indoors, but a background was used so nothing distracts from Charlotte.

Judge

 I think work is successful. It has good lighting and contrast. It has interesting shadows and you can see a glint in her eyes. There's nothing taking away from the portrait in the background.

Procrastination

Procrastination is something that affects a lot of people. It affects me in my day to day life. I developed bad habits at a young age, but now it's time to do something about it. If I just make a set in concrete plan for everything I need to get done then I can overcome procrastination.

Eve (window light project)

 

Describe

This is a portrait of Eve. She is close to the camera since this is a "beauty shot" using window light. This work is figurative.

Analyze

This image has a lot of contrast. Ranging from whites and blacks. Window light was used to make the image seem more natural. The shapes are organic aside from the dots on her sweater. The tones are dark with a few highlighted areas. This image is in focus to show Eve's face.

Interpret

This image is meant to show beauty. It is supposed to focus on visual appeal. This image is light because she has a slight smile. This image was taken indoors with use of outdoor light.

Judge

This work is successful. It shows window light and has dramatic contrast. 

Tia

 

Describe

This is a portrait of Tia. She is close to camera because this is supposed to be used as a "beauty shot". This is a figurative piece.

Analyze

This image shows a lot of color. The empty background also shows space. The shapes are all organic. The tones are very vivid. This image is in focus and this was done on purpose since Tia is the main subject.

Interpret

This photo isn't meant to have an in depth meaning. It is mainly for visual purposes. This image is light because Tia has a slight smile on her face. This photo was taken indoors with using outdoor light.

Judge

 This work is successful. It shows correct use of window light, the main purpose of the project, as well as Photoshop editing. The image has great colors and contrast.
