New Lighting techniques

Hey everyone today we are going to talk about different  forms picture taking. As you notice the pictures down below, you notice different light settings that highlight different portions of the persons face. I will explain what and how they work.

Split lighting is all about drama. By moving the light over to one side, you’ll cast half of your subject’s face in shadow of varying intensity. This can range from complete darkness, to something much more subtle.

Rembrandt lighting gets its name from famed Dutch painter Rembrandt, who often used this kind of lighting in his work. It requires minimal gear but can produce beautiful results. It’s also a very ‘standard’ type of portrait lighting, 

Broad lighting is more of a style than a specific setup; in other words: rembrandt lighting can be “broad” or “short.” Broad means that your subject’s face is turned a bit off-center, and the broader side (turned towards the camera) is in the light. 

Butterfly lighting is the classic beauty lighting technique. Great for high cheek bones and named for the butterfly pattern shadow that forms below the nose when it’s used, this will yield gorgeous “glamour” shots 

Hey everyone, today at South Carolina State University, we are learning how to properly us a light reflector.  I will show you the difference when using a light reflector and not using one.

The top picture shows us a picture without the use of the light reflector.

Now this top picture is with the reflector in use. notice how the light is now more focused on his face more so then the first picture. With the reflector in use properly you are now able to see most of his facial features.

This picture shows us the reflector being used. Notice how she is tilting it so the sun can reflect onto it and letting her control the light.

This video is showing us how to properly do a action sequence. The actor is getting her things and each time walking past the camera to show a continueious motion. Show that she is actually moving in a direction of progress and she leaves the building on South Carolina State University.

Hello everyone,

I'm back and it's time to tell you about my summer!

This summer was amazing. I traveled to Austin, Texas, to pursue my goal of travel. No one had told me that Austin is the Music capitol of the world. I immediately began to explore. I visited the Famous 6th street downtown. It was epic, they block off the street so no cars and drive through. People flocked the streets enjoying the bars and festivities.

After Texas I traveled to Colorado Springs, Colorado. Just to visit a smoke shop (marijuana). It was everything I imagined. When we entered there was a 5 dollar fee. Which entitled your stay for the day. After your in you don't mention money, it's called an reimbursement. They reimburse your money for weed. I immediately purchase 30 dollars worth,  and they reimbursed me with 5 grams of marijuana. I witnessed people hitting the dab (pure THC) and smoked with other stoners.

My outlook for this he school year at South Carolina State University is  to obtain all A's. My classes that I'm taking are my core classes so I have to master them. I am also the photographer for athletics, and promoting my business further.

Kizoa is a free movie maker, you can start by making an account and upload an picture you want. It can be use as for a class presentation and also for mini movies that you want to create.

What I like about kizoa is that it is easy to use and put your photos into it fairly well. The transitions for it are very easy to use and understand.

What i didnt like bout kizoa is that the music is very limited and so are the effects. They can be updated.

My Kizoa is some of the bulldogs around the campus of South Carolina State University. Here is my Kizoa

Who Am I

My name is Larell Mackey 

I am a Junior at the illustrious institution of South Carolina State University.

Studying Mass Communications: Broadcasting Major

I started dabbling in photography and videography a little my freshmen year and throughout the semester I became more involved.

I directed my first video my sophomore year.

I am a firm believer of investing in yourself. So the summer of my Junior year I bought my very own camera (t5i Canon). 

The name Infinite Desires comes from a quote I say everyday "I am INFINITE, I am ETERNAL, I am IMMORTAL, I am UNIVERSAL, and what I am is BEAUTIFUL". 

Its self Motivation, when you take a picture you can be whatever you DESIRE and have INFINITE possibilities. 

I've also created my Photography portfolio website.
