TARGETS
Screengrab editing techniques.
When you write about your own work (www and ebi) you need to look more closely and work out exactly what it is that you do well and what needs to be improved. At the moment you always write the same thing. Do you meet the success criteria? What subject-specific language could you use to make your annotations sound more sophisticated?
When you take photographs, try different compositions, distances and points of focus so you have a breadth to choose from.

look up
for my homework i took photos in central London of tall buildings too show the sky and gives a cool long angle of the buildings.
best edit
www i think i found some god spots and took really good photos and like how the sky reflects on the building i photographed.
ebi i cold of been more creative and gotten some more different angles of the building from different spots.
reflecting and mirroring
In this task i developed a distorted illusion like image by taking photos of tall buildings and duplicated them and then flipping them in all different sort of ways and then sticking them together to create a tall effect.
my work using a found image
best edit
www i reflected the image all 4 ways and created a cool effect
ebi i could of used a more creative picture or added another image and edited that too.
Four composition types
rule of the third revisitedImagine that your image is divided into 9 equal segments by 2 vertical and 2 horizontal lines. The rule of thirds says that you should position the most important elements in your scene along these lines, or at the points where they intersect.

all images
best example of layers
best example of balance
best example of triangles
best example of rule of third revisited
4 composition types homework homework
all images
for my homework i took what i learnt in class about the four combustion types and recreated it at home.
balance |
rule of the third revisited |
best images
www used lots of different objects to create the 4 compositions
ebi i didn't take very interesting photos and could of represented the the 4 types of compositions
framing using mirors
for this task in school we took photos using mirrors to reflect objects and make an affect where u can see whats in front of you and and behind you. You also had to make sure you had something interesting to photograph in the mirror and out the mirror which made it a chalange
first set of photos
all images
second set of photos
Best edits
www took lodes of photos and had creative ideas
ebi need to work on my camera skills and and things like focus and getting the right settings
formal elements
the formal elements are 7 photographing techniques that can make a photo look even better. the seven techniques are called line, tone, contrast, texture, colour, pattern, and form.
for this task i had to find examples of the seven different elements
all images
all seven elements
line
the use of lines in photography create a powerful element and guides your eyes around the images.
tone
tone refers to the levels of brightness in photography.
contrast
contrast is a key element in photography and helps keep your eyes on the main object in the photo and not there background.
texture
texture is a good way to describe emotions in photography.
colour
it effects the whole image and can effect the viewers attention and emotion.
pattern
patterns are very common in photography and makes a pleasing effect on the viewer.
form
form is where light and shape collide to create depth in images.
best edits
www I had a good understanding of the task and uses lots of different ways to show the 7 elements
ebi i could of made more clear examples of the 7 elements
beauty in decay
colins winter bottom work is an example what can happen when a place in unkept or left alone for a long period of time and this artist shows how somthing so random and something some people would consider ugly and he made it into art.
some of Colin Winterbottom work
best images
www found some really good spots in school and really understood the task
ebi work on my camera settings and editing skills
independent development
mirroring
in this talk i was required to first pick a photography style in which i chose mirroring and then after to pick a artist who does that style of work, in which i chose simon gardiner. my intention was to respond to his work and recreate it because i want to explore his style of work and see how well i can recreate his work.
example of simon gardiners work
all images
best edit
www the photos came out very well and looks very similar to simon gardiners style
ebi I need to work on edits and also should of taken more photos in different areas
second development
best edits
www i made the image uneven to create a effect when it is mirrored and it came out well
ebi i need to work on my edits and take more time and care on my images
Stephanie Jung
blurring images
her work
Stephanie Jung is known for her experimental take on multiple exposures. Her extraordinary shots show cities that depict reality but nonetheless lead to a different, surreal dimension apart from our real world.
www. im improving on my editing skills
ebi dont photograph derectly into light
Third development
Explain the intentions behind this shoot.
Add your unedited pics here
Add your unedited pics here
Fourth Development
pep ventosa
for this task i continued with the same blur and layer effect but used a different artists style.
this artist is called pep Ventosa and finds everyday things such as trees and adds the layer and blur style to it.
My Response
www edited it well and found a good tree similar to his work
ebi work on my backgrounds
Fifth Development
Final peace

Analysis
What do you think the photographer’s intentions are? There may be more than one. ‘PEC’ each intention.
P (Photographer’s name) creates (what type of images? Fantastical, surreal, objective)
E He / she does this by… (describe something in the image)
C He/she wanted us to consider ….
What wider issues is the photographer addressing?
P (Photographer’s name) is considering (is the photographer talking about a bigger issue in photography, society, politics?)
E This is shown by … (describe something in the image)
C The (Photographer’s name) was interested in this issue because (they felt it was relevant to us now…)
How do the materials and techniques used support your photographer’s intentions?
P (Photographer’s name) has used (the darkroom / multiple exposure / film / digital manipulation techniques) in creating this work.
E This creates a ______ effect. (describe something in the image)
C This helps to support (Photographer’s name) point about (showing an identity / hiding a person’s identity / the media / anonymity)
Introducing a task:
- In this task I was required to…..
- This task links to the theme, (______) as it shows....
- My intention was to respond to_______ because I wanted to explore....
Subject matter
- The subject I chose to photograph suited the theme as it……
- My composition helped to support my response to the theme by….
- I managed the exposure very well. My ISO / shutter speed / aperture settings were…..
- I prioritised my shutter speed to… (capture movement / blur/ frozen moment)
- I prioritised aperture to manipulate depth of field.
- I used a tripod to avoid camera shake.
- My images express my intentions which were…
Subject matter
- The subject I chose to photograph did not necessarily fit the brief as it was not interesting enough / appropriate / adequately lit…..
- Next time I should go to (a different location), photograph at a different time of day, organise people in advance, think more about my composition so that….. ect
- I did not create enough depth of field / sense of movement. The image is over exposed / underexposed / too blurred.
- Next time I should use a tripod / use a different type of lens (be specific) / experiment with film…
- My images do not show my intentions which were…
- The concept wasn’t clear in my images, I need to make it more explicit by…
- Next time I will consider the work of (a photographer) to inspire a more accurate depiction of what I want to achieve.
- I will experiment further with… (blur / shutter speed / composition)
