Week 4 (in class)

This is the first time I have been to this section of the student center and automatically my focus was on the shading on the ground. The pattern of the shade reminds me of some kind of abstract art piece. I also love how the dimmed sun light mixes with the strip of bright sun light, because it reminds of when I was a child imagining that the floor was made of lava, and there would be safe zones and danger zones. For me the dimmed light is the safe zone and the bright light is the danger zone. I like how the light extends, it's like walking on an abstract road.

Week 4 (In class picture)

Hello Everyone,

I took this picture at about 10:30, yesterday morning. As you may recall, the sun was beaming brightly in the sky, washing everything around in white light. I came across these vending machines that were producing their own light, florescent I assume, and I noticed that even being under a large building did not spare them from the enormousness amount of natural light that was being emitted that day. As we can see, the machine's glass is showing the reflection of the King Hall courtyard. The yellow table umbrellas can be seen. I found this to interesting, and It gave me a new perspective on lighting, especially our sun. I was amerced in the same feeling I might have if I am in an ocean. Only this is an ocean of sunlight. This picture illustrates that nothing escaped the ocean of sun this day.


Love

Week 4 Cylinders

Week 4 Cylinders

I really like the way the light hits the cylinder pillars by the Luckman. The pillars almost look like they are being hit by a backlight, angled just alittle to the left in order to cast the shadow in the front. The shadow pattern that the sun creates around the Luckman is like a pin-strip gobo. Whats interesting is that the shadow on the cylinders is twisting around.

Strong Light

The Strong light which is behind a wall makes me want to see the lamp of it.

Imagination

Actually the shadow gives me imagination how the whole tree might look like.

one dangerous shadow

This one can't make a light. I might look fashion less when I look in my mirror because I have less light.

Week 4 DTLA

This seemed like an interesting picture to Me. It's a picture of downtown Los Angeles being backlit by the sunset behind it. I thought this would be an interesting gobo showing the building skyline. The soft pink being emitted by the sun is a pretty color as well. The feelings I get from this picture are rewarding and calming. The way the light bleeds from one color to the next is interesting as well. I think it would be complicated getting a smooth run of those two colors next to each other like that but if I had to try I would use two fresnels to reach the wide array needed to hit both areas hazily.
