Learning Log #2 – Casey Tong

Low Key & High Key-ish

I like the way the roll was lit a milky white, and the strong contrast on the inside of the cup. The one on the right still is somewhat low key because of the contrast from shadows — due to lighting — but I thought the subjects were more visible, and since the shadows were reduced, this can work for High Key.

Low key vs. High key

 

Today we learned how characterize light. Also, on how the direction, intensity, and quality of light affect each photo. Additionally, we learned about high key and low key light. High key having little to no shadows and low key having more shadows within the photo.

I had initially taken it with rule of thirds, but then I cropped it a bit. I thought that the reflection gave an interesting feel to it and really helped set the mood of the photograph. it also has this interesting contrast of this nice white-ish color with a more like dirtier yellowish green in the reflection. The subject also loves this photo lol so that infuenced my decision.

Learning Log #1 – Jamaal Smith

 

In this class, we had to go around the building and take photos with different lighting. There weren’t many places that didn’t have good lighting but we were fortunate to catch some corners of the building with exceptional lighting. Like this one for example, all of the floors are pretty much the same and right before we went back down I thought I would catch this corner because it had just enough light to make a clear picture.
