Lesson 2 - Lecture

Lesson 2 has begun and our focus is literally focus (get it?). OK! This week Professor Peck show cases his studio as well as his apartment in our weekly breakdown video. P.S. Nice home! As Professor Peck begins to physically demonstrate the differences, similarities and connections between the camera and paintings he also demonstrates how light comes into play for both functions of art. Light, scenery and atmosphere are all components that assist in film (future lessons), photos and paintings. To give an example pertaining to film Professor Peck took us to the alleyway of his home and created a dramatic scene for his vlog. The scene was planned, by using a train as a prop, setting up his camera directly under a street light and having stores in the background to create a atmosphere. All of these components come into mind not only for film, will be discussed in future lesson, but also in paintings, the camera changes everything for the painter.

New question, should I try to vlog next week? I'm thinking about it!!
