Creative Lighting !

 The creative lighting assignment was very interesting to me because it really has an insight into dermatology lol! You were able to change the lighting and exam the constructor of the subject's face, based on what light was shown. Also, you get to focus on different parts of the face and see how it changes based on each angle.

The first one is setting up the layout for the next pictures. It also gives you an understanding of what the subject/model looks like with raw light from a flat frontal view. The lighting focuses on the model's face and it produces very little depth and contrast. The image is very neutral, with true consistent lighting.

The second image is very interesting because it always creates an image to me like the view moon. You get to see part of the subject and the other side slightly gets lost in the abyss. The correct term for what is being shown here is split lighting and the key/main light is 90 degrees and symmetrically eye level with the subject. This effect could be used in movies or pictures where you are trying to create a dramatic approach.

In this picture, we have an example of Rembrandt or 45-degree lighting. In the photo, you can see the model's nose creates a shadow on the face and emphasizes one area more than the other. The picture is set from a high point facing downwards from the subject. It's 45 degrees from the main subject and the other is a fill light that glares off the back right. You can see it as the hair flare's up and has an emphasis on that area. 

The last image is my favorite and the most creative! This is the picture we classify as scary because the light is focused on the chin traveling up the model's face. The strobe/lamp light is below and put emphasis on. We cut the majority of the light in the surrounding area giving it a darker effect so the spotlight was more or less focused on the subject.
