2. Caravaggio

3. • Michelangelo Merisi (Michael Angelo Merigi
or Amerighi) da Caravaggio was an Italian
painter in Rome, Naples, Malta, and Sicily
between 1592 and 1610. His paintings, which
combine a realistic observation of the human
state, both physical and emotional, with a
dramatic use of lighting, had a formative
influence on Baroque painting.

7. • To create dramatic lighting like Caravaggio we
lit candles in a dark room to create dramatic
contrast of light and dark.
• This was helpful as it helped me to see how
we can interesting and ambient setting.

8. Tim Walker

9. • Timothy "Tim" Walker (born 1970) is a
British fashion photographer, who regularly
shoots for Vogue, W Magazine and LOVE
Magazine.
• After graduating in 1994, Walker worked as
a freelance photography assistant in
London before moving to New York City as
a full time assistant to Richard Avedon. On
returning to England, he initially
concentrated on portrait and documentary
work for UK newspapers. At the age of 25,
he shot his first fashion story for Vogue.

13. • To copy Tim Walkers work we used lanterns to create a similar effect.
• The lanterns kept turning off so we had to take the photos quickly
and this made them a bit shaky and didn’t turn out as well.
• I think that this created an interesting contrast of shadows, light,
colour and darkness which I think we could play around with in our
music video.
