Norman 202 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 (edited) Is there something your viewpoint is meant to be saying about light and lighting. Are you suggesting that, for example, lighting design is an easier job than sound design and should be worth only half an Academy Award? Is working with light and shadow in a photo easier or automatically less complex than making compositional choices? Fred, that is typical of you.

Norma Desmond Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Norman, was your bed this morning lit with complex lighting, one side dark, moody, foreboding, and shadowy, the other side warm and sunny? I ask because it seems like you woke up on one particular side of it. We didn't need dialogue. We had faces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norma Desmond Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Melodramatic to the core It was a genuine question. I don't understand the purpose or context of the question, really what you're getting at. I asked earlier what you meant by complex and you were honest in saying you weren't sure. I thought providing some context for the question, some practical reason it might have been asked, would help us know what you're talking about, since you seem to be using "complex" in a way none of the rest of us are when it comes to lighting. My bad. _________________________________________________________________________ And . . . if you can pull of melodrama (see any number of Douglas Sirk movies) why not? We didn't need dialogue.
