This weeks episode brings the guys face to face with Value. Value isn't just what a piece of art is worth to someone or what someone is willing to pay for it. So what is it then? 

Value is the lightness or darkness of tones or colors. White is the lightest value; black is the darkest. The value halfway between these extremes is called middle gray. Space An element of art by which positive and negative areas are defined or a sense of depth achieved in a work of art.

We talk about some portrait shot in the book Framed Ink by Marcos Mateu-Mestre and how lighting in these photos can change the feel and mood of the person being photographed. Take a look at the book using the link and see if its a helpful resource for you too!

As we chat about Value and what it does for a piece of art we look at one particular photographer named Platon. You can see some of the portraits he has done on his website here

We talk about hoe lighting and contrast help to give a feel and mood for a piece of art. The angle, perspective, how dark or light and more.
