Capture That Light

Our assignment this week, was to work with the portable light reflectors. The light reflectors bounce the light from the sun that creates that harsh glare in your photos, and creates a beautifully lit portait. We had to take three photographs: first picture is the person shot with harsh glare from the sun, the second is the reflector being used to bounce the sunlight onto the subject's face, and the third is a wide shot of the reflector in action. My subject for the project was Lynn McGrierKiiyah Stokes is seen holding the reflector to capture Lynn's great photo.

Five Questions Sequence

We were given the assignment to do a five questions sequence where we each had to produce (record), host, and be the guest of the short sequence. The project seemed simple enough when we discussed it in class, but actually finding the time and people to do it was the hard part. I worked with Kiiyah Stokes and Lynn McGrier where Kiiyah was the host and Lynn was the guest.

As producer, i was tasked with recording shots of Lynn and Kiiyah at different angles. I first, had to start the intro with the two of them in a wide shot, then, record just Lynn with Kiiyah asking her questions and Lynn answering, then, one of Kiiyah just asking the questions, and lastly, the two of them in a wide shot again. Moving the camera around and around was quite the task lol but we got the job done.
