Photography; Thursday, Second Period [06/17].
The classroom that day was filled with a lot of miscellaneous objects and a bunch of different lamps, from your basic table top desk lamp to your professional studio kits. And Prompto, standing amid all of them, was there with a bright grin of his own.
"Give you three guesses what we're focusing on today," he said. "First two don't count."
But, yes, it was lighting, and after confirming as much if anyone actually did take that moment to guess, he launched into his lecture. "Good lighting," he said, "can make a huge difference in any photo, whether it's an impressive landscape, a selfie, or just some random candid shot. Want to avoid getting tagged on an unflattering photo from someone's party? Know where the good lighting is and just stand there all night." He chuckled a little, sure, but he would probably absolutely do that. "You can also use lighting in different ways to capture different moods when shooting the same subject, which is kind of cool, and mostly what we'll be focusing on today. I'm going to go over a breakdown of some of the basics of lighting and some general tips, and then we're going to put everything into practice , and you guys can play around with different light sources on different subject matters and learn how to best put these things into practice!
"Oh!" he added, stopping himself as he went to bounce toward the first lighting source he was going to use as an example. "Also, like, if I'm not mistaken, next week is our last class? Which is just wild to think about, but since it's the last class, I'd like you all to put together a little show case to show off some of the skills you've picked up or just to show off some of your favorite photos. So next week, five pictures, at least, and bonus points if you can demonstrate with them some of what you've picked up in this class! So keep that in mind for next week. Now let's get lit!"
....no, he was not going to apologize for that!

Did the corner of his mouth also quirk up in what some might term an expression of fond amusement?
Also yes.
