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.

Graphics

Graphics day 1 Materials paper indesign illustrator photoshop Process On the first day of graphics we learnt about typography. In typography we used different lines such as the ascender line, baseline and the descender line. These lines help make your letters. We then tried to create our own font incorporating the lines. After that we took out some cameras and tried to find objects around the college that look like letters of the alphabet. We had to try and find as many as we can.  In the afternoon we took one of our photos and then put into indesign and illustrator to turn it into a magazine cover. We also looked at the different ratios a photo can be split into. The different ratios are the rule of thirds, the golden ratio, the diagonal ratio and the spiral ratio. We changed the brightness and contrast by using the curve bar. a And then added text to the photo so that the cover had a title. Technical skills The skil...

Erhan Asik

Erhan Asik is a Turkish photographer who I came across whilst looking for ideas to do with water based long exposures. After looking through his work i figured that some of his photographs could be recreated. not by taking the photo in the exact same place. but by using the same concept of filters and the use of a tripod. this is the photo that inspired me to go out and capture my own long exposures. I like the way that the water looks in this photo. It can come across as looking like clouds or mist. the way Asik has created this is by using something called an neutral density filter which allows the cameras shutter to be open for longer without the photo becoming over exposed. Here is my recreation. the shutter speed for this particular photo was set to 10 seconds which allowed the water to blur and create the misty effect that i wanted to achieve. I  made sure that the orientation of the camera was set to portrait so that i could include the full length of the water ...

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...
