I used R21 in full to depict the farm deep tones associated with fall.
2.Easter Sunrise in a Gothic Cathedral
I used R15 in different tones to emulate the sunsinning through the church. As well as the window gobo to help with the motif that I am goig for.
3.Noon on a Hot Summer Day
I used R68, R80, R60, and L116 to give off the visual of a blue skyine in summer.
4.Winter Afternoon just before the snow
I used L201 and the dots/breakup gobos to look like snow in the winter.
Lighting Observation #12
Date/Time/Location: May 6 at 4:44pm in Tennessee
Objective Description: The light coming in the windows to hit my dogs’ fur
Subjective Description: The light coming in the windows doesn’t really have much color to it. It’s pretty bright, but any color from the sun is taken away by the amount of clouds covering the sky from the storm earlier in the day. Regardless of the lack of color, the way it reflects off of my dogs’ fur is interesting. Jessie is a reddish-blondish color, but the light takes the red out of her fur and makes her seem a little more dull. Calvin is a very light blondish color, so the light reflecting off of him makes him look even brighter than he is normally. Jessie becomes more a part of the surroundings, while Calvin seems very removed from it
Lighting Observation #12
5/05/22 – 9:18pm – Lewes, De
Descriptive: The sky is completely dark other than a crescent moon shining white.
Subjective: As I sit in the passenger seat the moon follows me as we zoom by. The moon is shining a radiant white against a harsh sea of black, bringing just a little light to the unknown. It looks as though it is a portal to the rest of the galaxy.
Lighting Observation #12
DATE – TIME – LOCATION : May 4, 2022 at 7:50 pm, Pride Pavilion
OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION : The sky is a pale blue color and the sun is shining brightly. Trees scattered the grass field, creating shadows on the ground.
SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION : The strong green tones of nature glow in the light of the evening. Life seems to radiate from all sides. Even as the day heads into night, the sky seems awake and full of energy. As I lay on the field, relaxing from a long day of classes, the calm sky gives me energy to finish more school work. The shadows dance along the ground as the wind blows the leaves. The shifting of the shadows creates an almost hypnotizing pattern, intoxicating me into relaxing longer in the field. In the hurricane of finals season, this serene setting is a refreshing break to allow the soul to become ready for the work that must be done.
Lighting Observation
- Date / Time / Location: May 4th, 4:35 pm , Emily Lowe
- Objective Description: I was in musical theater class in Lowe 108 and we were performing our final projects. As my partner and I taught our short audition piece, I could feel the sunlight coming in from the windows hitting my back. It was not very bright out since the sun was setting.
- Subjective Description: While the lighting outside was dimming, the warmth illuminating from the windows indicated the onset of summer. The faint glow excited me for life after college to come soon, but also for the relaxation in the near months before entering “adulthood.”
Photo Observation
- Attributes: http://www.sicily.co.uk/articles/the-best-beaches-in-sicily/
- Theme: Summer
- Description: This photo captures all of my favorite aspects of summer: clear skies, ocean waters, spending time with friends, warm lighting, and relaxation. The vibrant blue sky reflects a large amount of light into the water so that people may see their feet in the sand. Moreover, the brightness of the environment and cleanliness of the water create an almost “drinkable” appearance to the ocean. Over summer, I hope to travel to Sicily and see beaches as beautiful as this one.
