In this project, we first wanna try to explore with the possibility of light as a camera following a certain item. Thus, we made a night view of a city with colored filter paper and acrylic board.
The lesson we learnt from this was that the when the light gets near the object, the shadow starts to be blurry. It works like a camera with a certain focus distance.
Then, we realize maybe simply create a 2D pattern with different ways of organizing the acrylic board could create an even better shape.
In this experiment, we first used cellphone flash flights to preview. However, when we switch to the Halogen light, it’s much warmer than the light of flashlights. So when reflecting some reflective materials, it would not work as good as the flashlights.
