WEEK 2 Lighting Blog

LUIS NAVARRETE




















While taking this picture I felt a lot of things running through my mind. For one I see two perspective, I see one where we can see far in the distance a clear blue sky that the rainy clouds have not hit and in that you can see in the edge of the building the rays of the sun shining on that side.  The second thing that came to my mind is that looking deeper to the edge on the far right of the photo it gets darker and you can even see the  darkness the clouds bring to this photo and all it surrounds. As this darkness hits everywhere except where the sky is still blue and the rays of sunshine reflect upon,  it shows its reflection on the pavement showing the purity that exist that we can grasp or reach to. In that I felt peace and beauty along with that I felt that even with all that goes in this world referencing that the darkness is what is wrong and as it surrounds us there is that clear ray of hope; that purity that exist and I felt that in this picture as I looked towards the blue sky that is far in the distance. Along with this I felt the aspect designers feel when they deal with the concept of atmosphere and sculpting and I felt that intensity in this picture as those two concept are in this picture as to how i describes in my perspective.

    OOOOh what a beautiful picture! I love that hazy reflection quality, those almost pastel colors and yes, that definite contrast between light and dark, between the future and the present. Really nice work!

Rosalie Dierking - Lighting Post week 2

The other day I went to a concert at LA Live in downtown and when I went to use the bathroom in one of the nearby hotels, I had to go through this hallway. I was taken aback by how simple and elegant the lighting was. The way the white marble flooring reflects the geometric lights is really gorgeous! I love the choice of warm colors they made and how it make the room feel very cozy despite geometric designs typically making architectural lighting feel more harsh and uninviting (compared to other softer lighting choices). My favorite part of this whole hallway is how they managed to light it in a way that draws your eyes to the painting at the end which helps make it the focus piece of the room. -Rosie

Thalia Hendrick Week 14

For my last blog I decided to choose something more close to home. I have always had a fascination for nature and have always loved seeing blooms from outside my window. This picture was taken last week when I was home writing a paper. I noticed that the sun was setting and a beautiful golden wash was placed over a rose bush I had outside. Since the curtains inside my home were closed, there was no light being let into the room. I thought this image in particular was beautiful because of the contrast of light and darkness in the image. Although there is no light inside the room, it is still being bounced off of the brick wall and other things outside to illuminate part of the doorway and curtain. The blue sky is a beautiful gradient of blue and adds liveliness to the image. I also thought the red of the roses added character to the golden amber and greens in the picture. It brings out such softness when the light from the sunset is very harsh.  Entirely, I loved this image for ev...

Arturo Gonzalez Week 6

Week 6 This week's photo was a picture taken of my car dashboard. I was sitting in my car parked underneath a light as I was about to go into work. I found the combination of colors from where I was reclined very interesting. On the inside there was different Amber glows made by the light coming from above. Outside it was sunset, the sky had a blue ombre color that went from dark to light. The thing that came to my mind when I first saw this was the picture projects and how these saturated colors resembled that of the gels on the lighting fixtures in class and how it would look to replicate on stage. It is also interesting how this combination of natural light with  artificial light blended so beautifully. This moment was unique because it described a specific time of day seen in the shadows and light. It would have been something entirely different at a different time of day or different location. And yes to complimentary colors, I have enjoyed being more aware of light as it...
