Lighting Observation

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 4/26/21- 7:00 pm

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: Walking back to my dorm from the Student Center as the sun was setting and shining through the trees.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: Orange light pushes through the trees, their branches, and their leaves. As it does it casts a patterned glow onto the building ahead. Foliage playfully shadowed on this manmade structure.

Light Observation

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 4/29/2021 – 12:00 pm – Bits n’ Bites

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The light from the ceiling fixtures and from the food display case shines off the fresh, glossy fruits on the counter in Bits n’ Bites.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The fresh vegetables and produce sparkle next to the packaged, overeaten meals in the display case. The lighting enables the new addition to the dining area to call my name as I reach for a variety in my constant food habits, ready to make a meal.

Light Observation

  1. WHEN/WHERE: Friday, April 23rd, 2021; Noon; Lowe 106
  2. OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: It’s bright and sunny outside and the windows are half-open, but all the lights are off.
  3. SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: There is a sort of peacefulness that comes with the studio being dark. The sunlight shimmering through the windows offers just enough for the room to feel alive but at rest. Work can still be done, but there is no need to stress or panic. All is calm.

Photo Observation

ATTRIBUTES: This photo was taken by my friend Joe and showcases me posing in Pride Park.

THEME: Wild Card (Cartoony)

DESCRIPTION: Although the photo was not enhanced or edited in any way, the lighting makes it seem like I Photocopied myself onto the background. There are almost no harsh shadows in the photo and therefore no harsh lines to separate myself from the background. The bright lighting paired with the basic colors within the photo make it look almost like a cartoon.

Photo Observation 12

These pictures were taken by me in April of 2018 

Theme : Wild Card

I chose these pictures because it was the first time I ever played with lights. We had an LED cyc at my high school and one day, we accidentally turned it on with the last traveler closed. The result was the traveler looking how its seen in the photos. After playing around with it, we put a moving rainbow color on it, and that’s how the picture came to be.

THEME: wildcard

ATTRIBUTION: January 2021

DESCRIPTION: a man kneels in shock as he is covered with whipped cream. He contemplates his life choices.

Photo Observation

Attribution: This was a photo taken by me this summer when my mom and stepdad “eloped”.

Theme: Wild card – Silhouette

Description- The “golden hour” in the theme of love topped the creation of a memorable evening. The sky is lit with a beautiful pastel yellow tone with a light blue/ grey outline at the top of the sunset. This light created a silhouette to accentuate the setting of the beach with the palm tree and emphasized the love of my parents with their dancing bodies. This photo simply just needed the light background to create a photo of forever serenity and imagery.

Photo Observation (Wild Card/Dealer’s Choice-Irony )

1)

2) ATTRIBUTION: taken by me, 2018 Decatur, Georgia (I think)

3) THEME: Wild Card/Dealer’s Choice (Irony)

4) DESCRIPTION: The light from the streetlamp perfectly illuminates the words “Cool Stuff” on a wall that is covered in bubbly characters. Perhaps the only thing edgy or cool about this painting is the word itself as the characters are undoubtedly designed by a talented artist, but cute and adorable rather than fresh and hip.

Photo Observation

  1. ATTRIBUTION: Photo taken by me on 8/27/19, afternoon
  2. THEME: Dealer’s Choice/Wild Card (my theme: Heaven)
  3. DESCRIPTION: Looking out my window I see a shimmering ocean. A whole rainbow of blues is before me, from the vibrant sky to the world down below. A white ray of light appears to divide this place from what lies underneath the clouds. Among the white puffiness are wisps of pink, giving warmth in the frigid air.
