So how does this conversion process work? How can we control it? Why would we even want to? This is the first of two posts in which I try to answer some of these questions. But the same shade of grey, or will one be darker than the other? The answer depends not just on the original shades of green and red, but also on the conversion process. Sure, they will both be rendered as shades of grey. What about a dark green and a dark red? That’s where things get more complicated. Likewise, a dark green would generally be rendered as dark grey, and a light green as light grey.
If a real-world scene has blacks, greys and whites, in a B&W photograph we would expect them to be rendered as blacks, greys and whites respectively. Some colour-to-B&W conversions seem simple enough. This “translation” or conversion is done by the film (in film photography), or by the sensor and software (in digital). There’s no need to necessarily be afraid of it let’s learn from it and then move forward, rather than potentially lay the grounds to repeat the same mistakes in the future,” she says.A black and white photograph “translates” the colours of the original scene into shades of grey. “There’s so much tension in the air about what we are depicting and what we are telling, but history is history.
The mom of two says these lessons on Black history are especially important now at a time in America where there have been many efforts to suppress it. She also thought it was equally important for people of all backgrounds to learn about the history and culture of people of African descent. It’s their heritage,” she tells ESSENCE.Īri says she wanted her children, now four and six years old, to be exposed to as much of their culture as possible to educate and empower them to know who they are and where they came from. But now I have children who were born here in America, and I wanted to share my culture and our background with them.
“I grew up in Nigeria just immersed in the culture. What started as a way for Ari to teach her children about their Nigerian heritage through classic folktales has become a full-fledged program that informs and inspires people of all backgrounds.
