Cutting lightby ~alltelleringet

Digital Art / Photomanipulation / Humourous

Cutting light, the strongest light bulb there is. Cutting through wood, concrete and stone in just moments.

I've never really been working much with smoke and fire, so I wanted to create this photo as an experiment. So the idea is that the light is so strong that it cuts through anything. How do you think the different parts comes together? Any thoughts on changes or improvements, whatever comes to your mind I would be happy to hear!

Eg. what about the chair, better with or without? I think I got the cut right based on this simple sketch: Have a look at this: [link]

this is awesome i really like how the chair looks like its falling into the light and therefore more of it is burning simply amazing

I really like what I've seen from you so far, but this is only acceptable as an experiment (not that I could create anything this good

). The first thing that strikes me is that the placement of the smoke and of the red flames right under the lamp just does not look right composition- and conceptwise. The cut in the table somehow also looks wrong. Then there is the way the light itself behaves (correct me if I'm wrong); since we can actually see some of the lightbulb it follows that the radius of the area catching fire and burning should be much wider (almost level with the lamp). If you want the cut to be the way it is you should move the bulb up to the very top of the screen.

Furthermore, a room with that bright a light-source shouldn't be anywhere near this dark. If I'd made this picture I'd have made the lower part of the room so bright that the light almost completely eliminates the perception of color, even the roof should be well lit and the man should be shielding his eyes, taking a reflexive step back while casting a long shadow out into the next room. I'd have made the flames much smaller but more intense, made all the edges white hot like on the chair falling and included a minimum of smoke (because those particles would burn up very fast, so no smoke in the circle and only a little outside).

But you should definitely do more fire stuff

Keep it up

thanks for the feedback, yes it's a bit experimental

dislike , you can do much better than this

Another superb image!

(And since you ask, I think the chair is a nice touch but not quite right - would look better tipped over at a greater angle so that the cut through the back wasn't so suspiciously perpendicular to the chair itself)

i love the touch of the chair! beautiful work, the one part that catches my eye as looking a little strange is where the other chair is burning just at the corner - the flames and smoke there look odd somehow, perhaps it's the scale/size of them? otherwise, a beautiful piece of work, I'm always excited to see new art from you

I recently watched your TED talk, what an inspiration! keep up the mind-bending work hehe
