Last Draft #5

This week I worked with adding more depth throughout each image. I also added color and thin lines to provide seamless images. I made sure my backgrounds were super dark so you could see the lines very clearly. I think this week I created my strongest batch from the colors to the thin lines to the dark backgrounds. I found that some weeks were a lot easier than others because some weeks I didn't have a dark room to work with and others I did. Overall I enjoyed this project because it allowed me to be creative and create unique images each time because I could never predict what the outcome of the photo would be.

Draft #4

This week I worked on adding more depth to my photos as well as having color be present in my images. I struggled with making the lines thin as well as having the photo in focus.  I also struggled with finding a space that was dark enough to photograph. This week I only had 13 images due to not finding enough spaces to photograph. I have enjoyed this project because I keep needing to come up with new ideas to light paint. I also enjoyed getting to play with color within the images.

Draft #3

This week I continued working on light painting and experimented not only with color but with mirroring my images on the mirror in the bathroom. I had some technical issues when created these photos, however, I found that with adding a filter, and focusing the camera on the background I was able to create a crisp image. I attempted to make a collage including the light painting to try and switch things up. I smaller batch due to me being sick and not having enough time to create more images.

Draft #2

This week I took everyone's suggestions and added colors to my images. I also worked on adding some dimension to my photos. I moved backward while holding the light and it created an illusion of a tunnel and depth. I had a lot of fun playing with the color and creating new shapes. My goal next week is to continue to expieriment with color and shapes.

Draft #1

This week I explored light painting. It was very challenging doing light painting because there were always people in the bathroom which made it challenging to find a different space where I could do light painting that was dark enough. I really enjoyed getting to make different shapes/words. Something that was also challenging was thinking of new shapes to create. Next week I will be adding color to the light and see how that changes the mood of the images. The first photo of this series is one from last week because it inspired me to choose light painting for my project.
