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.

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...

Frank Machalowski | Chaos

Frank Michalowski Frank Machalowski is a German freelance photographer who I came across whilst searching for photos that show chaos. After further research i came across a series of photos called "monster".  The photos look really moody to me as they are black and white and have high contrast. The photos include the rush of people. which creates a blur. The way he creates these photos is by using a slow shutter speed of 5 seconds to get the blur. To recreate these photos I am going to go to London and shoot long exposures of people walking past. The equipment I will use will be my camera a tripod a shutter release and a ND filter. The photograph on the left is interesting as it is symmetrical and also has leading lines that draw your eyes to the top third of the picture. I like the different shades of black and grey that the rush of people create. This reminds me of a pencil smudge. This is a photo I took in the style of frank Machalowski. The locati...

The basic analysis of images in art and design part 2

Analysing An Image Analysing images can help improve the description of a photograph. The best way to analyse photos is  by using the 5C's. which are Content, Composition, Context, Connection and Comment. this Particular photo shows a very dark and gloomy factory. with bits of rubble on the ground along with weeds and their is also a very overgrown plant centered in the middle of the frame. This photograph gives off a moody atmosphere as the colours are very murky and dark. another reason for the moody atmosphere is because their is no body in the photo all that is shown is a few weeds and some grimy brick walls.  But the photograph is very intricate. Because the photo was taken at around F9, the photo is very clear and you can see the crumbling brick walls that show a lot of detail. The composition of this photo uses the rule of thirds. I can identify this because the focus point is the greenery in the middle and the two vertical lines go down inline with the bric...
