You will be creating your own charcoal portrait in class. In order to do so, you must first understand how to set up your lighting. We learned in class today how important lighting was to define form. When you are photographing a model, you must always think about how your drawing will look like. We do not have lamps at school so your photo must be taken at home. You can use family members or friends. Anyone! As long as your photo is well lit. Your photo is DUE September 26th in my email. It must have enough shadow to describe form. It must have a reflected light as well as a core shadow. The background has to be a solid color and can be done with a bed sheet. Failure to submit your photo for review will mean that you have less in class time to complete your portrait, thus leaving you behind on your work. Have your email sent to my by September 26th. Watch this video to help you set up your light.
