Evaluation

Taking on board other people opinions write an evaluation (1000 words) or give presentation critically evaluating your work. 


The comment that i have being giving on my photographic was great, the way i manipulated the images for example the angles that i used to take my photography by demonstrating the landscape of the outdoor life and creating mood for the audience.

The lighting was really because the day i went out to shoot my photography was sunny, and that was great but my weakness on the project was that some of the photos that i have took were blurred..

I tried to consider movement objects e.g. birds, and also grass blowing by the wind but it appeared to be blur some of the object because of the lighting.
Certain of the images that i have taking were interesting, it shows the background objects and things happening in the background.

Weakness was blur objects i used adobe photoshop to work on some of the photos that i taken to make it stand out more clear smart filter and also auto tone tools for the object become more brightness and to adjustment some of the objects tone, adjust the exposure until the image appears to have the right brightness.

example of the images:















I have choose the landscape photography images because it will fit well to the magazine project.
I really was aiming for the smoke art photography because that would be an interesting project to work towards because it will create a mood and that would be creative. The smoke art was part of risk assessment because that can't be done in the stuido but vaper was an great idea to use without a risk or fire alarm.

Lighting graffiti was an idea for me to use for my final project but didn't really had an idea to use for my lighting graffiti, landscape was straight forward project to work towards either in a bad condition weather or good. I have never worked or taken landscape photography images before so i thought of taking images that can attract people and amaze them. The images could be used for phones or wallpapers background page that will inspire others of the beautiful nature around them.

Lighting techniques can be used for landscape during the night or the golden hours and an hour or so just before are the best times of the day for capturing beautiful landscape shots with spectacularly colourful skies. The best capturing is moody vibrant skies just as the sun rises or sets. My aim was to capture a wide angle objects with the widest length to show moving objects and background. My key for the project was to show all the objects in a widest angle and clear. I positioned myself in a spot in relation of the sun that ideas the eye into the image.





Create a mood board for your final photography project.







My final photography project i selected a Landscape photography, because landscape will fit well for my final project for the magazine.

Create a detailed mind map that shows at least 5 ideas for your final photography project.









Create a detailed mind map that shows at least 5 ideas for your final photography project.








1. The water drop fall through a small hole, then by getting a good capture the resulting the splash.















2. I thought of smoke photography to create shapes for combining a range of shapes of smoke shots into a new picture that could be used for art photography.

















3. Landscape my idea for the landscape was to take few create images of building grass and tress. 
Capturing the weather and the landscaping e.g. night time landscape and rainy weather, to create a mood for the audeince, landscape are also used for background images for phones and pc etc.













4. Car park abstract an outdoor photography project, textures, colours and shapes 


5. Indoor splash shots by dropping the object into water and fire the shutter as it hits, to create a indoor splash shot by using flash to capture the water dripping down, the object will create a splash into the water.

Manipulated in Adobe photoshop.


Photoshop Image that has been manipulated.


Normal Image



Photoshop tools

I have used Smart filters blur Gallery to blur the background e.g. the grass and tree on the left side.
half of the image looks blur and the second half looks clear and normal. I mainly manipulated the blur on the image and adjusting the tone of the image to make it appear more of the brightness and darkness in the tree in the background. I used Image Auto tone to adjustment the tone of the image, for making the colour tonal and adjustment the image.

I dragged the exposure slider to the image for lighting. I adjust the exposure until the image appears to have the right brightness. I didn't really worry too much about overdoing the exposure as there was little risk of the tone to become more highlight detail clipping.

Traditional photographic processes

3. A blog post which explains the traditional photographic processes.

Tradition photograph is photographic processing or development is the chemical means by which photographic film or paper is treated after photographic exposure to produce a negative or positive image. photographic processing is transforms the latent images into a visible image, makes this permanent and renders it insensitive to light.


Negative:

Negative is an image, usually on a strip or sheet of transparent plastic film, in which the lightest areas of the photographed subject appear darkest and the darkest areas appear lightest. 

This reversed order occurs because of the extremely light sensitive chemicals a camera film must use to capture an image quickly enough for ordinary picture taking, which are darkened, rather than bleached, by exposure to light and subsequent photographic processing.  


Enlarger:

An enlarger is a specialised transparency projector used to produce photographic prints from film or glass negatives or from transparencies apparatus for enlarging or reducing the negatives or positive.


Developer:

In the processing of photographic films plates or papers the photographic developer is one or more chemicals that convert the latent image to a visible image.


Stop:

Stop is a chemical bath that is usually used in processing traditional black and white photographic films plates and paper used after the material has finished developing. The purpose of the stop is to halt the development of the film.


Fixer:
Photographic fixer is a mix of chemicals used in the final step in the photographic processing of film or paper. The fixer stabilises the image, removing the unexposed silver halide remaining on the photographic film or photographic.


Printing:

photographic printing is the process of producing a final image on paper for viewing, using chemically sensitized paper. The paper is exposed to a photographic negative and positive transparency. A digital image file projected using an enlarger or digital exposure until such as a lightjet printer.

My idea for my final photos was planning to take photos about sport, and how sport inspare teenagers . The hustle and the hard work they put in to it, but I didn't have time to take those photos. I didn't have enough time to come up with another idea because I wasn't really sure, so I decided to take photos of landscape nature. My Idea was to take a close-up photography to show the landscape and also to show it in details. Aiming for a great photos and background and develop my photography skills too. I thought about a landscape photos because people could use that as a background photo for iPhone. I wanted to do something different for my project come up with something way different, which it was landscape and nature living. I wanted to take my landscape photography to the next level by using a variety of advanced dodge and burn techniques to selectively lighten and darken areas. My creative work helped me to take those photos my aim was to take photos that will inspare others of how nature is a great place. My strength was the background some photos that I took were powerful and some didn't come the way it was planned, weakness is going to be some the photos I took wasn't in focus and it was kinda blurry. I haven't done my final pitch video but I had the ideas planned.
