The Lab Decoy: Representing Identity
In your portfolio, create a page and label it 'Framing & Lighting Reflection.' You will answer the following questions:
Questions
Describe the position of the camera in relation to the subject. How has the image been framed? What angle? What compositional tools (if any) are used?
Describe what type of lighting has been used. Is it artificial or natural? What direction does it come from? What shadows are there? What areas are highlighted?
Discuss the meaning created through these choices. How do the framing and lighting choices help to represent the identity that the subject identified as?
