Low light- Tokyo After Dark/ Haze, 2018In this picture, I can see a street light which is giving off a blue ultraviolet effect which shadows over a lonely street. I see a man who is on his bicycle and he's riding carefully, since he is on the edge of the pavement and not in the middle of the road. The quality of the light is very low.

I took these multiple photos of people in my photography class. My theme is Low Light and my goal was to photograph people sitting in a soft light that radiates across their face. I am inspired by TV Girl. TV girl is an American indie pop band, who's album covers consist of low light. I find the theme 'low light' interesting. Low light in photography refers to the amount of ambient light which is low. Also, the quantity of natural light is limited. Mostly, low light photos are taken indoor, or outside on a poorly lit street. The images I took were in the studio, where it's more secluded and masked. There isn't much natural light since there aren't any windows, and the room is sheltered with curtains. This creates the perfect low light atmosphere to take pictures in. To generate the coloured sequel, I added lighting gel.

Plan for making day
On the day of the making session, I intend to create a mood board featuring various photos I've taken that link to the low-light theme. Most of my low-light images were taken under the influence of Bill Schwab. His pictures are mostly landscape, and I intend to create a gloomy effect through my portraits. I will be using a large display board for my exam, and I will be matting my photos on it. I will need to spray glue my photos down, and then layer them on top of each other. I will also need black paint to make the board darker. |
