For this session we played with photography and different lighting styles, as there was a couple of us shooting we tried many different angles and many different light placements. for these shots I tried to create an intense look. with information on these different types of lighting I learned how to create more dynamic shots. I think out of all the shots I took I personally liked broad and split. split allowed us to Create a strong sense of mystery. shooting with broad lighting and with color gels allowed for some really interesting shots, for the shot above I like how the yellow light creates a strong but thin outline on his face.

In todays class we worked on learning the different types fo portrait lightings. I used on person to show off the difference between the loop and Rembrandt lighting, another for slip, and one last subject for broad and short split.

By shooting these 5 shots I wanted to focus on the lighting as I used mostly a close up blue light. To show a dramatic look on each of the shots by adjusting the light to where I want it to go; The most I did enjoy doing was the split as it created the more light source on the left side of his face.

For today’s class our assignment was to capture the different forms of lighting: broad, Rembrandt, loop, and short. This lesson emphasized the importance of light in photography. This class also made me realize the cool effects you can have on your photos through the use of light. Some of the photos that we took gave off a somber vibe due to the lighting.

This lesson is to use different portrait lighting for the subject. Each have their own different feel and look. Broad and short have a similar composition but different use of lighting. Broad focuses more light on the subjects face while Short uses less light on the face. Rembrandt and loop are similar but different. Loop is the edging of the shadow on the nose while Rembrandt creates a triangle lighting on the subjects cheek. And lastly, Split is using the lighting adjacent from the subject to make a slice on the center of the face, one side being lit while the other side is dark.

In todays lesson involving Portrait Lighting helped me understand how to do portrait shots with different people and and see what kind of colors can contrast with that person. With each photo i took today involve with and without color in the portraits shots. Personally in my opinion when taking the photos I was able to have a better understanding on how to properly take portrait shots and enjoy doing them. In the end of the day its safe to say that I will be able to take better and more portrait photos more often in the near future.

In this class, we learn how to use lighting and composition. The use of lighting can change the mood of the scene. Some ways of doing so is creating highlights and shadows. I used the lighting on the skull to give some highlights to stand out from the rest in the photo. The second photo I focused more on telling a scene or story by giving the back dinosaur more shadow to blend in with the background. It gives off as if the dinosaur is appear from the darkness. And lastly, the last photo is an overall look of using both highlights and shadows.

During the class session we tinkered with lighting. the most important element in photography. My group and I experimented with both hard lighting and soft lighting, while also manipulating different environments, both white and black. while manipulating focus and aperture I was able to create depth within some of the photos. I also utilized angle to create a more diagonal dramatic effect to one of the photos as well. This exercise was very benefitting to my knowledge of lighting as well.

Today’s photography class we learned how to shoot in different lightings. The difference between light and dark lighting is that the darker lighting gives a pop to the flower. The light on the sides angle from light to dark which adds shadows to the flowers and background. I used the reflective board to give it more of a depth in the picture. The lighting goes from bright to dark in a linear direction.
