Film Finals

Film Finals


These are the four film photos that I have taken for my order project. They all link to Joel Tjintjelaar's work as they are all taken whilst pointing the camera upwards. I also used a grade 4 which is Y0 and M130 on the enlarger so that the photos would display lots of contrast. 


This is the first photo I took when I was doing my shoot. I think that the distinct outline of another building's shadow on the left makes the photo eye catching. I set the aperture to F10 so that it could capture as much detail as possible. You can tell that the image has captured detail because you can see the intricate lines going up the building. I also believe that the composition for this photo was well positioned as the photo is evenly balanced and contains the rule of thirds ratio.

This photo was taken at Liverpool street station. What I like most about this photo is that I dialled in a very fast shutter speed, so there is no detail in the walls, it just looks completely black. However, the windows are visible, silhoutted and make the whole image look dismal. 
The composition for this photo includes the rule of thirds ratio. Although the image is perfectly straight on paper, when I tried to scan the image in, it didn't stay straight so unfortunately this is the best I can do.

This is the photo that I like the most. The reason why, is firstly due to the contrast. It is ideal for the photo and really gives it character. Secondly because the photo was taken at F10, it has a lot of detail which can be seen as you are able to see the reflection of the clouds in the windows, which works undoubtedly well. 

 This is the last image of the film finals. Although the composition is on point. I wasn't able to get the contrast that I would of liked. The reason why this wasn't possible was due to the fact that I took the photo whilst the building was in broad daylight. Therefore, the photo was over exposed and I wasn't able to get the right contrast without darkening the whole image.

Anaglyphic effect in photoshop

After thinking about my options i came to the conclusion that i wanted to create an image with a 3D effect for my final piece.  Creating an anaglyphic photo is actually very simple, it only consists of 3 steps. Step 1)  The first step is to take the image you want to develop and drag it down to the tab which looks like a post it note. this will duplicate the layer so that you have a foreground and a background layer.  Step 2) Once you have your two layers you want to double click on the layer that is at the top. the photo on the left shows what it looks like. what you want to do is look for the three ticked boxes labelled "R" "G" and "B". you want to untick the "R" box. then press ok and you will return back to your photo ready for the final step. Step 3) before we do the final step you must make sure that you have clicked on the top layer before you adjust the layers as if the bottom later is selected you wont be...

Ideas for 3D project (Unit 6)

3D Research At the start of any project, its always a good idea to have a look around and try and find some ideas and techniques to use. because the project is on 3D. i began my search on pintrest and simply typed "3D". there were hundreds of photos, collages and physical pieces to chose from. i started with the most recognised style of 3D. anaglyphic photography. anaglyphic is basically the red and blue lines that appear on the edges of the objects being photographed. This is an example of an anaglyphic photograpgh. the photo shows a model in the right third of the image. the photo is being shot in an architectural area. from looking at many photos. alot of the anaglyphic shots are taken in areas with buildings or structures, this is because of the straight edges which makes the 3D effect stand out.  this is an analogue example for my 3D project. this is called lenticular printing. this technique is all about perspective. as you can see depending on wha...

Eadweard Muybridge Recreation

Muybridge Recreation In preparation for the photographs I adjusted the focal length to 100 mm and the shutter speed of 1/2500, the fast shutter speed enabled me to get a crisp image. However, because of the fast speed it let in less light making the image slightly more darker. So I new  thatwouldn’t be able to go up to 3000 th of a second. As the photo wouldn’t be visible. The camera I used shot at three frames per second which was fine as there wasn’t to much of a gap. What I like about the image is that it has similarities to Muybridge's showing the different stages of the body  as they run and also the black and white effect. By  adding  black and white to the photo gives the image a old look which looks cool to me it also brings out the black in the dogs fur and therefore makes it stand out from the bland background.
