Workshop 1 - 8/10/2014

Limited space

Using the studio and the surrounding area of the university our task was to collect three different photographs. They had to based around there different subheadings:

1. Found object
2. Physical
3. Emotion 

Found object

Here my partner on the project (Zoe) managed to capture an image of an umbrella handle. By using an editing app on my phone, i have managed to crop the image to distort the image slightly. Also by using filters i have changed the contrast and warmth of the photo. 

The composition of the photo is what makes it look so alluring. With the reflection of the university in the background of the picture which is blurred to create shallow depth of field. Meaning the image in the foreground is in focus. Where the viewer can even see the water droplets on top of umbrella handle. 

Physical

To capture this image i put two of the chairs together using both of the patterns on the chair backs to produce pattern and texture. The contrast of black and white along with shadow does give the image a physical effect. The image looks embossed or layered.

Emotion

The reflection of the glass with the pattern of the circles evokes the idea of depth and clarity within the image. Putting the image in to black & white  enhances the steal enhancing the picture quality. The reason i have have used it for the sub heading 'Emotion' is because of the control of light and reflection.
