Unit 1 evaluation
My unit 1 evaluation.
Over the last year I have experienced a large range of topics in photography such as Abstraction, Light painting, Contrast and Absurd
During unit 1 we made a range of personal projects like pin hole camera, cynotypes, photograms, camera obscura , ipods and digital dslr. In Abstraction for example i used photoshop to use laping of a circle shape using still the image into the image twice twisting the circle round like a puzzle.i also created images using the pinhole cameras taking the image to exposed light in the pinhole. i learnt how to use a pinhole camera and the technique of using ones i also fount out that i can make my own pinhole camera at home.
My final piece for my first ever personal project was a range of images taken on a school trip to London for a project called street photography. I feel as if they came out really well as i understood what i was needing to do for the first ever project and fount it quite successful, The images was a mixture between with blur and still images i fount doing this project really easy from just taking images of people not knowing.i understood the point of the topic and was really easy for me to do so and to get a final piece from the images. I didnt enjoy doing much of the photogram topic or cynatyps as i struggeld doing them at the time. and didnt get a good final outcome with my experiments. I got good out come using the pinhole photography page as i was able to evaluate my work easily and to get my final piece use for that subject.For my final piece for that subject within that topic i used a pinhole camera of people running across the links in my school as it gave of a blured effect from them running and it being in black and white from the reflection of the sun on the paper used.
For the last year i did a topic called contrast which was where i took images of a black background and using light to get certain light onto my friend to get the light moving the light from different angles to get either more or less lighting just to light up the model used.i got good outcomes and bad with this topic as all the good images were mainly the first set of the model used as i took the images and directed the person where to place the lightening and how close and far away i wanted it to be.i enjoyed doing this topic and my final piece was really good.For my final piece i took and image of a tree in original colour used in the image i then edited the photo in black and white and made a collage with it i also did another version of that image but making it look like a pop art piece what i also did in this subject was taking blured images making the colour smudge giving off different contrast tones.
For absurd i mainly used photoshop for my images i went out took two images or one and changed the image to create the one photo, it was easy to do and didnt take very long to do so if i could of done anything better in this section i could of made a lot more experimentations to make my subject better.
All together i think my unit one had a lot of mixed feelings of what i did for my unit one because somethings went very well and i enjoyed to do and were easy to complete as i also learnt new photography skills along the way.
