COMM 3530 Assignment: Portaits


These two shots compare the sunlight Rembrandt in black & white and in color. I don't like trying to get the lighting right with hard sunlight. It was nice light, but hard to find the shadows I needed.


These two shots compare the studio light Rembrandt in black & white and in color. I like studio lighting more, but it wasn't always easy to get the shadows in the right spot. I had Emily move around a lot. In this one, she was going for a Mona Lisa look.


These two shots compare the sunlight split in black & white and in color. Again, I didn't like sunlight. It is so unforgiving and hard to have the face in a hard half and half light with the line down the middle.


These two shots compare the studio light split in black & white and in color. I didn't feel like I got the spit to show up very well, but it didn't turn out horrible either.


These two shots compare the sunlight glamour light in black & white and in color. I think I prefer the glamour look to the other two styles. Maybe because its easier to get even light on the face or maybe because the face seems to be more even.


These two shots compare the studio glamour light in black & white and in color. I like this kind of lighting the most, if you move around and get right up on the light, you can get some really creepy looking shadows on the face. But lighting the face evenly makes the subject look like a model, hence the name glamour lighting I assume.



As for being the subject. I didn't like being in front of the camera before starting the film program at Dixie. The more projects I got involved in, I had to get in front to act, so I got used to it and it doesn't bother me like it once did. I'm willing to try just about anything for the camera these days, but the operator has to be quick, because I seem to only want to pose for a few seconds.
