Week 5 - Final Photographs Being Taken

  This week I finally went and started my taking photographs of control with the props I had brought in. For the 3 ideas I had came up with I brought a basketball, a sort of puppet/doll and a hat(which I didn't take photographs of). First off I went to the schools basketball hoops and started taking photos of Maxime taking some shots. I had to let him take a few photos at times since I had a better style of shooting and would look nicer. After that I had headed out to help Maxime with a few of his photos and then went to find some graffiti so that I could use it as a background for my doll to be in front of. I used Maximes hand as another prop so that it can gloom over the doll.
  After getting back to the CRaM room I didn't edit any of the photos and had them sent over to my google docs to then edit them in the next lesson.
  After taking these photos i'm pretty sure that i'm going to use the doll photos for my project, but i'm definitely going to have to take a few more photos of the doll. Its not like I didn't take a lot of photos of the doll, but I want to create this sort of storyline for the doll which can be shown through the photos because I think that'll be quite interesting.
  Here are some of the un-edited photos I had taken:

Week 4- Getting Down Ideas for the Project!

  I started to brainstorm about what I could do for my final project. I came up with a few ideas, but I was keen on only 3 of them which were:

1. Have a doll being controlled, pushed around by a hand

2. Tricks with a basketball or any other ball

3. Have an object being blown away by the wind e.g a hat

  I was a bit sceptical about the third one due to it not having many shots to take of it and thought about having a hat and putting it on top of railings or posts after being pushed by the wind.
  For the doll I would have it next to a nice background that would also go with the theme of the project 'control'.
  For the basketball shots I was thinking of me shooting the ball and letting someone else take the photos, but also thought that it would be good if I took a few of someone else shooting while I take the photos.

  As you can see thats mostly what I had been thinking about so look forward to next weeks blog as I'm gonna explain how the photoshoots are going to go and what I pick for my final project.

Week 3- Another Session of Research

  This week was also another session for research as for particular reasons wasn't in for some a few lessons so I missed out on some photographing outside, so instead I decided to work on my sketch book and research since I was quite a bit behind on it. All that is left is to annotate some of my photos and then i'll be up to date on my sketch book.
  Now here are some photos I managed to take and edit outside of the school. I think that they were quite good and I managed to edit them on photoshop after I took them.

I had a different version of this photo, but I couldn't upload it to blogger due to the file being to big. I had learnt something new and used the tool history brush on it.
