Question

Discuss why you think moving the light around is such an important part of Sheldon’s process when photographic food.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

By moving lighting sources around, the photography gets a different quality and characteristics, expressing various feelings and expressions. For example, the back-light is used for silhouettes and sidelight for shadowing, often in black and white photographs.

By moving lights, the artist experiments with shadows, color values, and contrasts, creating different expressions of the image.

Also, it is good to move the light around to see which one works best and get the best possible angle for the photography you wish to capture.

Answer 2

Answer:

I think it is important because it can be hard to capture food photos. Some foods like apples shine off the light. Sheldon wanted his photographs to have perfect lighting.

Explanation:

Lighting always changes and food changes a little too, to be honest. Maybe a hot food has steam coming off of it that you want to capture right away. It's important to have great lighting when photographing food.
