Progress meeting notes

Shift: 

Environmental portrait

Focus on three styles of lighting these location portraits.

Ambient lighting 2/3 are done. Re-shoot of lakefront will be the last of these.

Mixed ambient and strobe lighting. None done. I would like to do two at least. Art gallery would be a good shoot for this. Pick one more shoot for this, maybe Kurtt?

Pure strobe lighting. None done. Again, focus on two minimum. Stephan's shoot will be a strobe location lighting. Possibly the forest shoot as well.

Sherrie Levine

Hmm, large class discussion showed a lot of very outraged opinions on her work. I think that was the entire point and really liked her point of view and how she gained her fame through her shocking work.

David Hockney: Joiners

Such an incredibly interesting and unique photographic application. I did this once in high-school and it was a really enjoyable experience, coming back to Hockney had given me another perspective on the work I didn't see before my college education.
