When Technology Takes Over!

Technology is something we use every day in society. With the amount of new technology coming out every year, such as new cell phones and computers, the more we lose our humanity in our desire to want these things. Technology is slowly taking over humanity, and the results could be dangerous if computers can think for themselves.

Lighting: To light these photos I used a rim light and a main light with a softbox. For the first photo I set up a table to place my computer and the subjects head. The main light was in front of him shining down while the rim light was in the back. The setup was the same for the second photo, just without the table.

  1. So, I was thinking. Could you borrow a cat or a dog and take a picture of them from the side yawning? Then you could use the open jaw with teeth to give your laptop a little more bite. It would take some creative erasing using a low opacity on the eraser and going over it over and over until you get it where you want it. Just a thought. It would make your second picture stronger to have more products of technology around the guy maybe burying him in it. That would become your background. I like your lighting and your composition on these. You did a great job of lighting his head inside the laptop.
