PHOA113: W2A1: Feedback
Hi Sheralyn,
You will find my feedback for your W2A1 for four out of the six categories in the rubric. Feedback has been provided to you in the form of “group video feedback”. Please ensure that you watch the entire length of the video in order to gain the most insight.
- RE: CREATED 40 NEW PHOTOGRAPHS OF A SUBJECT; 20 FRAMES TAKEN INDOORS WITH NATURAL LIGHT AND A SET OF 20 FRAMES TAKEN INDOORS WITH THE SAME NATURAL LIGHT IN ADDITION TO ONE STUDIO LIGHT USING EFFECTIVE TECHNICAL LIGHTING CHOICES, EXPOSURE, WHITE BALANCE, AND FOCUS
- RE: CREATED NEW PHOTOGRAPHS SHOWING A CLEAR DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IMAGES SHOT UNDER “NATURAL” LIGHT AND IMAGES SHOT UNDER “NATURAL + ONE STUDIO LIGHT” AND VARY IN POSE OF MODEL AND COMPOSITION:
- RE: TOP 3 IMAGES HAVE EFFECTIVE TECHNICAL LIGHTING CHOICES, EXPOSURE, WHITE BALANCE, FOCUS, AND BALANCED VISUAL COMPOSITION AND INCLUDE AT LEAST ONE EXAMPLE EACH OF NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL LIGHT:
You
submitted the basics of the assignment: 40 images of a new subject; 20
taken indoors with natural light and 20 taken with the addition of the
modeling light function on your studio light. You also include a
wide-angle image of your lighting scheme and image of your handheld
light meter in correct use.
In terms of white balance: I would encourage you to measure your color temperature manually with the gray card. Please refer to the video tutorial within the Questions for the Professor; details on this post are noted in the group video critique (above).
Everyone’s contact sheet is discussed in the critique. Please note: you’re required to watch the entire length of the video. What I may say to one student – could also apply to your own work. Essentially, you don’t want to “miss anything”.

for the final assignment – are also noted in the video critique. Your

everyone is watching the video and taking note of the feedback.
