Work Diary For Multiple Flash

Evaluation

These two images are what I achieved from my shoot multiple imagery. I used two different coloured backgrounds so I could see two different effects, I found that multiple imagery seemed to work better on a black background as it was more clear with the movement of the person, where as on the white background the person faded as they moved each time which you can see from my photo. I do however like the image on the white background as I though it looked effective with the faded outline of the person, this was my favorite image on the white background. Next time I would like to plan my shoot better by making my model use props and perform different moves to get a range of photos.

How i could use this

This technique could be used in my personal project as I could use it within my sub topics being animals and fashion etc. this would make my photos look more effective and also demonstrate my knowledge of this technique while also making it more interesting and whorthwile.

Image Bank - Blur

These photos above represent the technique blur, this is when the shutter speed is set low and the camera catches movement within the photo making the movement blur. the technique blur can be done on anything as long as the shutter speed is low, therefore I think the technique is good because it and I think it would be good for me to use this in my personal project. When I experimented with the blur technique I only done it in the studio and I found it worked better on a black background, however I would like to try outside this technique.

Work Diary- Overlay

Evaluation

Today i completed the technique of overlay, we went out in groups and took pictures of different textures and then portrait pictures of people faces. Then on photo shop we put one image on top of the other and change the opacity and rubbed out the parts we didn't want. the two pictures above are two pictures which i achieved from the shoot. i especially like the bottom image of the model on the stones background, i think it looks effective because it looks like she is somewhere like at the beach. i also like the top image because it is different but i still think it looks effective and overall i enjoyed doing this technique.

How i can use this in my personal project

I could use this technique within my personal project as i could portray commercial photography with a twist, for example i could take picture of a building and then i could take another picture of say water and the have the building so its floating on water. 

Image Bank For Multiple Flash

Image Bank For Multiple Flash

All these images represent the technique for multiple flash. the technique for multiple flash is when you place the camera on a tripod, you turn off the model light in order to use trigger for when you want the camera to flash and take the picture. in order for this technique to work you need to ensure the object you are using or the model you are using moves so that you get a range of things happening within the photo like seen above. i like the image of the juggling balls because i think it looks very effective, i think this is due to the black background and i like the fact that there are various amounts of hands within the photo as this makes it seem very interesting. i also like the picture of the guy doing the cartwheel, this is somehting i would like to try myself as i think it would turn out good.

Work Diary Multiple Exposure

Evaluation

These are two of the photos which i took today during my multiple exposure shoot, i thought these two pictures were good as they both show different things. i like the photo on the right because it shows the town and a person and i think the photo looks quite mysterious as the colour goes form dark to light which i like. the photo on the left is effective because i like how the arrow looks like its sitting on top of the daisys. i also like the contrast of dark and light in this photo and i think both the arrow and the daisys blend well together. my favourite photo out of the two is the on of the right and this is because of the lighting which i think makes the photo look very interesting. however to make it better i could have positioned her more to the left as this way she would have looked bigger than the building and it would have blended together better.

How i could use this

I could use this technique because my personal project is based around marketing and advertising, therefore i could use multiple exposure to make my photos look more appealing and to my audiences. i think this technique would come in handy because it will enable me to included a range of photos in one and this will be helpful when doing my topic as it means i can plan a range of shoots with different ideas. The photo below shows how multiple exposure can be used within my topic because the multiple exposure has made it look more interesting and worthwhile to look at. therefore this technique would be used in marketing.

Image Bank Multiple Exposure

These images all represent multiple exposure because they contain multiple photos within the photo. Multiple exposure is a technique in which you take two or more photos and then they combine together using the multiple exposure technique. My favorite two images are off the hand and flowers and they woman in the leaves. I like the picture of the hand because it looks effective against the flowers and also I like the fact there are clouds in the photo because they make the photo seem calm. The photo of the woman looks effective because I think she stands out form the rest of the photo against the trees and the sky. 

Project Proposal

For my unit three project I would like to study commercial photography as I like how broad the subject is and this will enable me to come up with a range of ideas for different shoots. Some ideas which I have already for this subject is fashion, equine, food and landscapes. These ideas are very broad which will give me different options to choose from which means I wont be stuck for ideas.

The techniques that I would like to use are stop motion, multiple flash and ring flash. By using these techniques I will be able achieve a range of high quality photos, which will help me achieve my grade.  I will be doing location and studio shoots, some locations I have thought about are brick lane, and some areas around where I live because they have a nice set out.
