Painting With Light Assignment - The Sounds of Silence

Painting With Light

The Sounds of Silence

My goal for this photograph was to reveal to the viewer my passion for playing classical guitar.

Since there is no aural sense to this picture, I painted with light, individual eighth notes in order to

provide emotional depth and add sound visually through the use of various colors that I painted with.

You can almost hear me playing the guitar. The biggest challenges that I experienced in the creation

of these photos was: 1) avoiding subject blur (20 to 30 second shutter speed) and 2) obtaining proper

color temperature frontal lighting.

The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly - Performance Task - Stirling Kim Moss

By: Stirling Kim Moss Living On The 🅦🅘🅛🅓🅔 Side The Good The “good me” is the one that strives to be the best that I can in all aspects of my life, especially during these last few crucial years of high school that will determine my future. Unlike others, I consider doing homework a good thing as it is necessary in order to accomplish my long term goals. So, here I am studying hard in order to achieve that elusive 100% on my next test! I wanted this photo to appear as though it was taken with a film camera, since I’m considered more of an old fashioned person. The blur/feathering effect that I produced around the edges was to lead the viewer's attention to the center of the picture.

The Bad The “bad me” is the one that likes to live on the edge - at the lunatic fringes once in awhile. When you work hard at school, you need s...

Renaissance Photoshop Assignment

By: Stirling Kim Moss Renaissance Photoshop Assignment Original Painting - The Jester With A Lute by: Frans Hals Photoshopped Painting - Harry With A Lute by: Stirling Kim Moss The Renaissance Period is ranked among the most influential periods of art in the history of Europe. It took place between the years 1300 and 1700. It is considered as the cultural connection from the middle ages to modern history. This span of 400 years was broken down into several different movements, one of which is the Baroque period which spanned the years 1600 to 1750. This was a time of development through all of the departments/groups of art. For example, aside from paintings, many musical styles were born in that era, like the Concerto and symphonia. Styles like sonata, cantata and oratorio flourished. Also, Opera was born out of the experimentation of the Florentine Camerata. The work of the Baroque period is ...

Multiple Exposures Assignment

By: Stirling Kim Moss Let The Big Dog Eat! Camera Settings Shutter Speed: 1/500 second Focal Length: 24 mm F-stop: F-5.6 ISO: 1000 The movie, Happy Gilmore, a comedic golf film, inspired me to produce this multiple exposure photo. Golf is also my favourite sport, and I take part in several tournaments throughout the summer break, I am also a member of the Oakville Trafalgar High School golf team. I wanted the viewer to imagine me running up to the ball and striking it with a mighty blow. In order to accomplish this, I made sure to position myself closer to the camera in each succeeding picture. I also wanted it to seem as though the ball's path was headed straight for the camera's lens, in order to shock the viewer.
