Task three – experiment three

In the second experiment, I made a video to notice the changing of light in different time. For the next step, I changed a way of observation, only concerned about a single light-emitting object. In contrast to the experiment, I can not observe the movement of the object and the subtle beauty but found the details of the fine, such as the texture of the glass. It makes me a bit disappointed because I can not get inspired from it. So I want to go back to video production to find more light changes.Here is the recipe of the experiment:

Ingredients:
1.A camera and tripod

Method:
Noticing the slight things.

From this experiment, I noticed the details like glass texture and pattern. However, there is no movement, can’t give the audience a sense of beauty.https://vimeo.com/233976916

Task three – Experiment two

Ingredients: 1. camera
2. computer editing
3. make a survey

Methods:
1.use the camera to film pieces in two locations
2.put the videos together, to look at the changes between daytime and night
3.upload it to the vimeo.
4.make a questionnaire and send it to three people and waiting for their response.

The question:
1.What do you notice in this video?
2.How do you notice the light in daily life? How to record it?
3.How do you think of the lighting influence on our lives?

They all noticed the light in the video and stressed the light importance at night.
Light is basically everywhere. Whenever you noticed something visually you are actually noticing light at the same time, because without light you will not be able to notice anything but darkness. I will notice and record light when I see something looks different with its natural form and that difference is caused by light. Light is the thing that brights our life. We are able to see things and notice things because there is light. In my opinion that is the biggest influence light is bringing to our life because without light we won’t even have a live.

This video I make it speed up to directly show the light change in a period of time. Also, u can see I did it contrast between daytime and night to obviously see how the light changed and the light affects the surrounding objects. From this experiment, I realized that the change of light is inseparable from the movement of objects.

Task three- experiment one

Recipe:

At the end of task two, I have two questions that I would like to explore in the next task. One of is that how to use lighting to draw audiences attention.  For the next task, I choose the light to be my major topic to notice the effects in our life.

Ingredients:

A camera

methods:

step1:  walking from the state library to Flinders station at night(after 9 o’clock)

step2: photographed the light that I often see but ignore.

step3: Make a questionnaire  to look at the reaction when people see the photo

 

Reflection:

After the first experiment, I’ve noticed too many sense that I ignored in the daily life.  At first, I just thought the light is simple, which means luminous objects at night, but I was wrong when I capture these photos by camera.  The camera could capture these moments better than human eyes, set the camera record the colorful world. In addition, the light is not the literal meaning to give a place bright. Nature presents us with a yellow roll of light and shadow. The sun’s rays, the lightning in the air, the rainbow after the rain. Artificial lighting is learning from nature to imitate.

I’ve made an investigation about the experiment.

Q1: What do you notice in these photos?

Q2: What do you think it?

Q3: Did you notice the light before?

I sent this questionaire to three people and got their responses. They all noticed the same things-lighting in these photos, but they all didn’t notice it before. They think the pictures are beautiful even they do not believe it took in Melbourne.  One guy asked me where I took the picture which is a glass under the chair. It is just picked in front of the Commonwealth bank.  He never sees that before.

After this experiment, I would like to explore how to make a video to draw their attention, to see how the light change, to notice more light effects around us.
