Studio Photography & Image Production Lab 1- Blog


This picture was used to show light all over the persons face. Although he was turned facing the window, You could see his entire face. I also like the fact that I was also able to show my skill of auto focus, by focusing on the person and blurring the back round.


The second photo I took was when the person is facing the camera. This was meant to show that because he is beside the window, his right part of his face is lit and it gets darker the further you go to the left of his face. This photo came out perfect and it also introduced auto focus which I had learned in the previous lecture.

  
I took this photo outside. I did this to get better lighting. While outside I used these big shiny things called "Diffusers", "Filters" and "Reflectors".  We used a silver one which was called a reflector because it reflected the light from it to another object, in the this case the student. This was helpful because it allow to aim the light anywhere we wanted on the students face. In this case we reflected it onto the left side of his face.


When taking this photo I used a diffuser. This was a gold colour instead of a silver colour like the reflector. What this does is is disperse the light evenly. This causes the light to completely cover the persons face.
