Playing with Artificial Light Set Subject Guidelines
Artificial light refers to any light that’s not produced naturally. The light source excludes the sun, moon and stars as the dominant light source.
Be creative and use a light source or light sources to create an image that has impact. Light can be generated through streetlights, car headlights, torches and light painting tools. The light is to be added to the exposure whilst the camera shutter is open.
The use of light that is synchronised with the camera shutter in the form of a flash is excluded from the competition. Portraits of people, close up images that use studio flash or studio lighting are also excluded from this competition.
What you can learn:
The effect that different light forms can have on the impact of an image.
- Experiment with some composite images that tell a story with some creative lighting.
- Experiment with changing the colour of the light in post-production. The light source must be captured by the camera.
