De la Oscuridad (From Darkness) - 2011
Part 1:
Composition: A high contrast picture of a man walking towards the light. The aperture and the speed of the photography make the picture eery and misterious as only shadows and silhouettes can be seen.
Concept: Mistery.
Method: When presented with "places" I wanted to create places just by using little resources. I found out that light and camera angle can create a powerful picture with no need to create or look for "fancy" places.
Motivations: Experimentation and play.
Context: When finding places on my house, everyday places, I thought of "Stairway to Heaven" and "Stairway to Hell" kinda concept for me to play with it.
Part 2
Interpretation: Everyone was surprised by the context. The camera placing and the light made them not recognize if the figure is comming or going. So I think I did a good job on portraying something "misterious".
Evaluation: I'd wish I had a powerful camera to capture all of the little details. But I think that I did ok overall.
Extension: I am not sure if I want to follow this whole place idea, however I like the idea of finding everyday places and turn them into dream like places just by using camera angles and lighting.
