Focusing on taking pictures that alter the face I decided to
take these next three pictures in Photo Booth. I usually take these pictures in
my room cause I have really good light and a really awesome lamp that can give
great shadows. The first picture I
took I simply pointed the lamp towards the left side of my face which when put
in negative makes the light black which I thought looked really cool especially
having the shadow over my eye making it look like its glowing. The second
picture I took I actually took my alibaba pants that my brother got from me
when he went to India and put them on my head making a Grace Jones esque hood,
which cast some cool shadows over my eyes, with the help of my big hair, which
gave a kind of mysteriously ethnic look to the picture. I also used the “glow”
setting on Photo Booth, which brought out the metallic colors in the pants. The
last picture I actually took in my bathroom. Originally it was the thermal
setting in Photo Booth but I decided to make it black and white when I moved it
to iPhoto and amped up the contrast so it made a complete shadow over my eyes
and gave a shine line over the top of my hair. I put my hands up to make the
picture seem very linear; I thought it added a good effect. I think these
picture show the evolution of my interest and experimentation in Photo Booth.
