FilmAnalysis · 照片背后的故事

一整面红色

从照片出发,读一段摄影史。故事和照片之间只是阅读上的联想,不代表照片的作者、相机或实际用的胶卷。

1973 · 暗房与冲洗

1973 年,威廉·埃格尔斯顿在密西西比州格林伍德拍下一盏灯和一整面红色的天花板。

这张照片用染料转印法印制。V&A 博物馆说明,这种工艺当时主要用于商业广告,埃格尔斯顿把它用在了纪实和艺术摄影上。

不妨试试

找一个几乎被一种颜色占满的场景拍下来,看看整片颜色怎样改变画面的气氛。

「不妨试试」是编辑设计的练习,不是史实。

威廉·埃格尔斯顿

FilmAnalysis · Stories behind the frame

A whole surface of red

Read a little photographic history. These connections suggest ways to look; they say nothing about authorship, cameras or the physical film stock.

1973 · Darkroom and processing

In 1973 William Eggleston photographed a bulb and a whole red ceiling in Greenwood, Mississippi.

The picture was printed by dye transfer. The V&A notes that the process was then mainly used in advertising, and that Eggleston brought it to documentary and art photography.

Try this

Photograph a scene filled almost entirely by one colour and see how that colour sets the mood of the picture.

"Try this" is an exercise written by the editors, not history.
