Photo Observation

This photo is from advertisements for the Korean production of Matilda 

3) THEME: Inspiring

4) DESCRIPTION: The silhouettes amidst fog and a bright white spotlight both contrast the cool blue background and fits right into the picture at the same time. The little girl’s daring stance under the man towering over her not backing down illuminates the stage around her. Defiant she will be though she is small.

Lighting Observation

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 4/7/2021 – 5:40 – road leading into CV Starr

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The sunlight shines from the right of the sky, barely behind the top corner of the building, yet illuminating the entire structure. CV Starr’s windowed side walls glow from the white light that shines upon it, reflecting it around the surrounding areas and lighting the freshly blossomed petals of the University’s trees.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The windows make the structure of the new building turn into rays of light themselves as the sunlight hits them, making for a stunning, sparkling effect. Although the building is not brand, brand new, the way the light the corners of the building makes it look sparkling. This building looks completely different in the Spring.
