ART: (reduction)
1. communicate
2. entertain
- an image should be compelling & not just communicate a point
- the image can be too dry on its own
scientific approach to composition and lighting:
1. shape (drawing stage/ shapes of everything/ ie form and light/ no value)
2. color (light)
3. edge (refining stage of a piece)
[ 2 & 3 are the focus of the class ]
how to approach light:
1. where do you want to direct the eye
2. what is the mood
3. how much depth do you want
character: light against dark / dark against light
[ nothing directs the eye more than light/ value ]
things to consider when using light:
-direction of light
- time of day
- bounce light / intensity
- what is light really doing?
*** Don't let your ideas about the logic of light overrule the artistry of your piece.
