Assignment 2 - Lighting the Stage (a.k.a., One Scene, Three Different Ways)






The objective of this assignment is to develop control of digital lighting through views, colored lights, and materials. Following the initial understanding of these skills, a secondary objective is to adjust lighting to change the perception of space and form (using Photoshop).

The images shown here are preliminary experiments that will be refined. My goals for this first effort were to simply understand how to use the light rendering tools in Photoshop, and how to apply colored layers and colored lighting to the scenes.

I like the way that light encountering the columns from different angles has the ability to magnify the apparent number of them on the screen behind them. I wonder, if the lights were positioned at different heights, if the column height were varied, and if the shadow intensity were softened, whether even more intriguing ambiguity between the real columns and their projected images could be created.
