1) 2/24/11, 2:23am, My room
2) Objective: The moonlight shining on my ceiling.
3) Subjective: As I’m laying in bed, completely in the dark and looking up at the ceiling, the moonlight has my attention. It shines through my closed blinds and on my ceiling. It’s so bright and luminous that I can’t turn away.It draws my attention in a room so dark that all I see is the light. It turns a dark room into a bright cooling sensation.
1)2/23/11, 3;17am, Room 1408 Enterprise
2)Objective: Looking out the window at the all the lights of the city.
3) Subjective: Late night but early morning light descends upon the sky and the city lights gleam. Looking out the window at all the colors and lights mixing together to create a bright and beautiful view. It has an ambience all its own.
1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 02/24/11 Dorm Hall way
2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: Fluorescent light in a dark hall way
3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION:As I walked to my dorm room the lights in the hall began to flicker. It was well past sundown and with each flicker the darkness appeared to get thicker and longer. I felt like I was in an abandoned hospital wing in a horror film. Needless to say I ran to my room.
1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 02/23/11 Speigal Theatre
2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: Kolb trying to turn the house lights of for a movie
3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: As the different sets of lights flickered on and off, the movements were seemed fluid and organized. It was almost like the lights were following a rhythm of a song. They were a visual keeping the beat and time. As well as portraying the story.

3) THEME: Modeling
4) DESCRIPTION: I felt that this photo was the perfect example of modeling. Although there aren’t many dramatic shadows, the subtle ones really help to define the form of this soldiers face. This is espcially apparent around his eyes. The curves and indents probably caused from intense fatigue are darkened and give his face form. This is what makes it such a striking photo.
1. 2/22/11 – About 9:30 pm – NAB Blackbox
2. Two fluorescent- ish flashlights moving around and shining on a bunch of actors very slowly walking towards each other in blackout- flashlights only light source- during creepy monologue at rehearsal.
3. Royston wanted to play around with an idea for a specific monologue during rehearsal, it was very effective. There were these bodies slowly, steadily descending on the actor speaking and the only light in the entire space was coming from these two harsh lights that kept moving about, sometimes all you could see was feet, other times a full face and sometimes the light became so harsh on someone’s face they looked distorted. Actually they all looked distorted in this freakish light. At times only a part of the face would be modeled or backlit and the shiftiness of the light put us all on edge. It was at once very cool, and rather terrifying.

Theme: Modeling
I felt this picture was a good example of modeling because of the way the light hits the two pairs of shoes in this photograph. Though it is not a very brightly lit picture, you can see exactly how each of the shoes curve because and how they fit to the feet that are in them. The way the light works with the furthest left leg also indicates how it is shaped. You can also understand the shape of the small bits of chair legs that can be seen in the corner and between the two pairs of feet because of the side-light in this photograph.

3. Studio lighting shining on a model’s lips with a crab painted on them
4. I am so amused by this photo, and the overall concept behind it! I honestly would never think to paint a crab on my lips! (or fox, caterpillar, pikachu- see my fb- etc. that are in this album!) I liked this as a demonstration of modeling because part of the charm of the crab is that it sticks out away from her face, she’s puckering her lips. Consequently, the light that is shining down on her from up top creates a shadow under her lips; because the crab is modeled with highlight and shadow underneath the effect is that the lips/crab jumps out at us! I think it’s utterly adorable!
When/ Where: At my desk in my dorm room, 2pm.
Objective Description: Sunlight reflecting off a ring.
Subjective Description: When I sit at my desk in the early afternoon the sun shines directly onto my left hand when I’m on my laptop. What I notice is that when the light hits my ring it reflects little spots of white light all over the wall behind my desk. The reflected light looks like tiny stars in an off-white sky. This makes me happy because it reminds me of those little sun catcher things that I had when I was a child. No matter how many times this happens, it always catches me off guard because the light that’s reflected is so bright.
When/ Where: 1am, my fiance’s apartment
Objective Description: Blueish light on the ceiling from charging Wii remote.
Subjective Description: When the lights were turned off in the room and you looked up at the ceiling from the bed you could see a triangle of blueish light on the right 1/3 of the ceiling. The rest of the room was quite dark in comparison. What was interesting about the light was in one eye you could see the blue light, but in the other it was dark enough that you couldn’t see anything, so in this moment I felt like I was half blind. Between the feeling of not being able to see out of one eye and the weird color from the charger the ceiling looked very eerie and scary to me. The light made me so uncomfortable that I had to unplug the charger in order to go to sleep.
