Something I hadn’t thought to add to my blog where all of the attempts I made during the process to assignment five. This assignment was something that became a project and works in progress from starting assignment three. By investing is a studio modelling lamp I was able to both control the light and myself as the subject.
Mood and expression have become apparent in my tutor feedback on a serious and dark atmosphere. By controlling how I placed my self and the light was able to achieve the desired look. Although I mentioned I wasn’t a huge fan of Crewdson work I become pretty obsessed by the way the light was falling onto my face. Trying to achieve the perfect Rembrandt triangle of light.
Image and Text lead me to think of how I could use both in a more poignant way of thinking. Had I placed more time and research with this image the text would wrap around the portrait, though I couldn’t get to grips with the way I wanted it to show.
Light can work in a number of ways when you want the image to convey thought and context. Id never wanted any of the images to be seen as fun or smiling. One I’m not a huge smiling person and two it provides more drama to the picture.
