The painting starts off from the top with different shades of light muddy brown squares that are interrupted by strokes of paint and the splatter of black. The light muddy brown color is the base of the painting, the background that neutralizes the excitement and emphasizes the other colors and shapes giving them more importance. Under the squares are two interesting circles that seem to become eyes. The eyes draws in the viewers because it almost creates the face. This face is important because it illustrates the face's emotion of wildness and excitement as well as if the face was looking at the viewers and their reaction to the painting.
The colors being used are all dark colors, especially green and dark blue that creates a cold, dark, gloomy, negative which work very well in the world of mythology or an unreal world. The painting begins with brighter and stronger colors that attract attention because at first the color is at its strongest brighter value, however as you observe in detail, the colors are getting darker and mixing together, losing its tone, which is used to create the effect where objects appear to be far away . The use of light is also well utilized in this painting because it highlights the front of the painting and calls
The Calling of Saint Matthew created by Caravaggio, brings out emotional effects by manipulating the light on the piece. With all the subjects in the scene, without the lighting, it would be difficult to point out the focus or the focal point of the painting. If all the people were visible as clearly as Matthew is, then the piece looses its meaning and emphasis of what is going on. By highlighting certain elements, and darkening others, he created large contrasts between the two side by side to bring even more emphasis on the main people, mainly by highlighting Matthew. Just like in a motion picture, lighting is used to create a sense of evil, passion, hope, etc.
The lighting was sort of a water effect, and it really made a connection with the audience. The slow moving was true because of the drugs, however, I’m sure the minds of those individuals were everywhere from water to fire, from pure to evil, from slow to fast. The characters really didn’t have to do anything, the effects of the music and lighting combined, brought the whole scene to life. The darkness of the nudity scene, I believe was purposeful. I believe it told a story on how, the people in the era was as free as they wanted, but no one noticed.
When he felt he had the right image he would then project the slide onto a canvas and pencil in both lines and details. The reason why Goings was so amazingly talented is because he could paint the photograph with such profound detail that the audience would be able to see detail that they would typically not be able to see in reality. "My paintings are about light, about the way things look in their environment and especially about how things look painted. Form, color and space are at the whim of reality, their discovery and organization is the assignment of the realist painter." The painting called Ralphs Diner (1982) is a great example of the vivid detail he used with light color and texture.
He is poking fun at the age old concept of ‘equality,’ one that has inspired wars and movements alike; he accomplishes this by creating a system to make everyone equal, a system that happens to be just as stupid as the idea of ‘total equality.’ Under this system equality is achieved, but it is at the cost of individual freedom and a society full of stupid people, this in-turn creates the situational irony found in the story. The plot of the story itself is a piece of situational irony, however there are many other instances found throughout it, including verbal irony. One specific example of this is when Hazel and George are talking, Vonnegut writes “ ‘I think I’d make a good Handicapper General. (Hazel)’ ‘Good as anybody else,’ said George.” His response to Hazel’s comment is slightly sarcastic, but also ironic, in that she really would be “as good anybody else” because in their society everyone is just as good or bad as everybody else. Another example of this false sense of equality is when George says,
Although a shocking event in both adaptations, the color version better fit the mood of the attack on Caesar’s life. In the black and white version, the obvious lack of color creates a scene that is less gory, and therefore, less captivating. Along with that, the colored version portrays the assassination taking place in front of a crowd of senators, which provides a more exciting scene. The gory, chaotic scene depicted in the colored version provides a higher level of excitement that is far more effective than the black and white version. Another difference can be seen in the approach of the actors and their portrayals of their respective characters.
The use of strobe lighting was very clever as it showed like a old film being played and the white flickering filter that was used within the pice. Due to the strobe lighting it also means we see like snapshots of them setting up the stage rather than them just running around the stage. Lighting throughout the play was used extremely effectively as sometimes it would represent the mood of characters and the weather and
Additionally, the transition in language allows the audience to see Mercutio as more than a jokester. Because of this, he gains credibility for his views. Furthermore, as the language used becomes less whimsical and more patently alarming, there is less breathing room between phrases, which creates the image of Mercutio losing control. Mercutio’s delivery of these lines is effective in that the audience is able to sense how destructive and delusional dreams are – to the point that they can drive a sane man mad. Through the “Queen Mab” speech, the audience it introduced to Mercutio’s lightning-quick wit and ability to steal a scene.
The Outsiders, by Se Hinton, was very different from the movie the Outsiders. The book gave a lot move description but I’m glad I saw the movie to get the actual picture in my head. I don’t think people should by separate by the way they look or how much money they have. All people have feelings. If the movie had more detail it would be more interesting.
