PROJECT BRIEF
LIGHT IS ABUNDANCE AND WE NEED IT TO SEE.
IT STIMULATES SIGHT AND MAKE THINGS VISIBLE.
WITH LIGHT WE SEE BEAUTY AND UGLINESS.
CAN WE CAPTURE LIGHT?
HOW DO WE INTERPRET LIGHT?
WHAT IS OUR PERSPECTIVE ON LIGHT?
I HOPE TO FIND IT THROUGH THIS EXPERIMENT!

In the first experiment, I found that how light is being captured is very dependant on the camera movement, direction and speed during exposure. It was a 4s exposure. The purpose of the perforated plywood plank is to act as a shutter to capture light. From here it translated into a very interesting repeated pattern. Hence the focus has been set to infinity to eliminate clarity on the planks. To achieve a 4s exposure at maximum aperture of F2.8 and ISO64, ND1.8 filter was applied. Next I will explore on longer exposure and random movement.
Exp2.
In experiment 2, I explored random camera movement with zoom lens moving from wide to tele, focus distance change from infinity to minimum distance and aperture setting changes from min to max during exposure. I restricted my light source, instead of natural light, I used light from a floor lamp. 30s shutter speed was used.

Capturing light in video mode (1/4s shutter speed). In the video, light is being shaped when the camera moves.

The result is very fascinating. It gives a very different perspective of light. An oblivion, I might say!

In the second experiment, the result is very fascinating. It gives a very different perspective of light. An oblivion, I might say! With a longer exposure and three variables in action i.e. during exposure, focal length is altered, focusing distance is altered and lastly wider distance in the movement.
