 Process

 The aim of the lesson was to create an advert for a pen company called Bic. We then got split up into groups to brainstorm ideas for the advert. After all four groups came up with their plan we pitched it to the teacher who then decided who's idea was best. Then the teacher picked the best one and we started to develop the idea and start to produce the advert.
We were all given different jobs so that we could successfully make the advert. The rolls were the actors, director, floor manager, camera, lighting, camera change and auto cue.
My job was to operate one of the 4 cameras.I was positioned diagonally so that I could get side views of the actors. The whole advert lasted 30 seconds. And it took 5-6 times to complete it as it was a live recording so their was no room for mistakes.

Technical Skills

 The technical skills we learnt from media is how to use the cameras properly as it was difficult to manoeuvre around the studio. Another skill was changing the gels on the lights so that the light projected a green colour or a red colour.

Martha Madigan | Camera less Photography

Camera less Photography  Camera less photography is an alternative to using a Dslr camera. Cameraless photographers such as Man Ray  Martha Madigan and Adam Fuss create their photos using enlargers. Man ray was one of the first people to create an image without using a camera. he called these "rayographs", Which then evolved into photograms. To create a photogram you place objects over light sensitive paper and then expose the paper for around 8 seconds. The downside to using photograms is that the photos will always be 2D and will be from a birds eye view. Martha Madigan American photographer Martha Madigan was born in Milwaukee in 1950. she is a very interesting photographer as she creates very surreal photograms with multiple exposures and objects you wouldn't usually use. some of the themes she has done in the past are life and death, nature and culture and the fleeting existence of the body. the reason why i  chose to research this photographer wa...

Shutter Speed

shutter Speed what is Shutter Speed ?  The Shutter speed is how long your camera's sensor is exposed for. The way this works is by two shutters ( or curtains). One that goes up at the start and one that goes down at the end. Depending on how fast the shutters move will depend on how fast the photo was taken. For example if the shutters moved at 1/15. Then the photo will be a bit blurry and should probably need a tripod as longer shutter speeds pick up more movement. Slow shutters can be used for landscape and anything to do with light trails. whereas a fast shutter speed like 1/1250 will be a lot more sturdy and more crisp. This speed is used for action shots and fast moving images. The next two photos show the difference between a slow shutter and a fast shutter using water droplets. Both images were shot in manual mode which enables me to have full control of the camera. To show the differences fairly I have kept the same composition for both photos. All I've...

Joel Tjintelaar | Order

Joel Tjintelaar Joel Tjintelaar is an international award winning black and white photographer. I really like his work because of his architectural images.they are very pleasing to look at due to the symmetry within the photographs. After scrolling through his series called "looking up". i quickly realized that i am able to create very similar photographs. the way in which i will pursue this is by going to a variety of different buildings in and around london, trying to capture the symmetrical look from each structure.  How will i link this to joel Tjintelaars work? The key things i've noticed that i will need to include in the preparation to take my photos is composition. the main ratio used in Tjintelaar's work is the rule of thirds. to make sure that my photos will contain this particular ratio i will use live view on my camera which will  displays the vertical and horizontal lines on the screen. After the shoot, the most cruci...
