High Key Lighting and Rim Lighting

Week 7 - Thrusday

Research
High key lighting is where everything is white and it brings out the subject in the photo. These are examples of high key lighting and the setup.
Self - Directed
I like this photo because it brings the subject out more, I knew I should of zoomed in a bit more but this will do.




Rim Lighting is where the light is placed behind the subject to get that lighting around the subject to stand out. These are examples of rim lighting and the setup.



Self - Directed
Photo taken of Grace, I like using this lighting better because it looks unknown. The thing that's not working is there is a lot of black space in the image, I should of zoomed in more.


Rembrandt Lighting and Split Lighting

Week 7 - Monday

Research
Rembrandt Lighting is where half of the face has light whilst the other half has shadow but with a  triangle under the eye. These images are examples of rembrandt lighting and the setup.

Class Task
The thing that's not working is that little light beside her mouth but what I like about this photo is the triangle well it's not a triangle below her eye. Overall it seems like a good photo.

Self - directed
This photo I took of Grace was hard to take, the thing that's not working is were her head is tilted on the side, we just wanted the triangle is appear and it wasn't working when her face was straight. We were in a rush tryna take this photo fast because we had to go.

Split Lighting is where the key light illuminates only half the face, so it has a complete split in the middle of the face. Here are some examples of split lighting and the setup.


Class Task
I like how it's split in between her face, but it would of been better if it was zoomed in a bit more.

Self - directed
I kinda like this photo, I would say it's alright but I don't like the crop, it's a bit weird.

Manual Mode, Focal Length

Week 4 - Monday

Using a short focal length and a medium shutter speed of 1/60.

The difference I can see between these two images on focal length is that the top image shows how the background seems so far, where the bottom image shows the background up close.

Focal Length: 105.0mm

Colour Correction Exercises

Week 4 - Thrusday

Editing my own two images using colour correction.

Im using this image I chose from working with aperture in the first week, it was taken at home of the garage door with a rain drop ready to fall down. Can really tell a difference, it was a cloudy day, now I wanted to make it look like it was sunny by moving the exposure and highlight dialler then using the white balance tool. This is my outcome.

The second Image of freezing movement.
I used Grace for her hair so she could sway it around. The difference I wanted to get across was to show more of the layers in her hair to get that effect I mostly used the shadows dialler and played the rest like the highlights, exposure and temperature. I did use the white balance as well. This is my outcome.
