Photogram Finals

Photogram finals

For my photogram finals I linked both images back to Brittany Wright's work where she takes photos of food from above. These were the results.


This was the first photogram I made using polo mints. I created this by placing the polos over a sheet of glass in a line and then I slid the light sensitive paper underneath. The exposure for this photogram was 10 seconds at grade 3. I think that overall this is a very basic photogram however, it links back to Brittany Wright and it also has a part to play in my order project.


This photogram is slightly different to the first, due to the fact that the sweets I used were wine gums.  I thought the image would look interesting as a photogram because the sweets are opaque. Looking at the photogram I'm really pleased how it's developed, because the light is travelling through the sweets and this is reflective in the image. The photogram was also exposed for 10 seconds at grade 3.

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.
