Sam assigned me to go out of the studio to take some action sport shots. I took it in the documentary way and took photos of an event-"Holi--A Hindu Celebration of Colors" on Sunday. During Holi, people throw colors at each other to celebrate the coming spring. It is one of the biggest gathering event in India. I used very fast shutter speed to capture the "moments".

Making Inanimate Objects Come to Life - Brittany












Ali's assignment for me was to move away from portraiture and take shots of inanimate things and make them seem animated.  I was also playing with scale and perspective.

Mariel's assignment for me was to focus on point of view by taking shots of a normal object from different angles.  I also was focused on lighting & focus with this photoshoot.

Christy and Lena's Motion Experiment

So I wanted to do one fast shutter speed, one slow shutter speed, but he got too dizzy before I got to the fast ones... i also desaturated it a little bit on the computer because i thought it looked nice.

Here's an even slower shutter speed/i also think i spun faster.

faster shutter speed (kind of inspired by the main picture on the blog)

Swilson uses the light studio


In the past, I have tended to go for a much higher contrast shot when using flash lighting that had a lot of dark tones to it. This time I decided to go the other way and use lots of light and flat white background.
