Final Assignment: Love

Color, Flashlight & back of head photos.

The top one is the "use only a flashlight to take the picture," and it's obviously of my dogs nose. the second one is the back of my head and i just set it on a cabinet with a ten second timer and walked over to the closet to take the picture. The third one if of a pine tree in my yard, showing that my favorite color is green.

Halfway.

ok so this is what i have for photos so far. the bottom 2 i can't decide on, the only problem with the one second from the bottom is the huge glare on the door from the flash. so i don't know about that. 

Same but Different Assignment.

So for this assignment i wanted to do feet. haa. i think it's funny because we are all the "same" but different in ways, and i think feet is a good way to show it. Everyones feet are a little bit different.

Sunglasses

so my pictures for the ad came out wayyy too light on my film, and i can't really do anything about that. i also took the pictures digitally when i took my film pictures, so im just going to post them on here.

I decided to promote sunglasses for my ad, and i thought it would be cool to just take a picture of her face with the sunglasses on. I know it is really simple and i could have done something more "daring" but i really like how these turned out.

T.V Show & Campaign

The top picture is for my t.v. show. I was going to show a person having an eating disorder, but that didn't really work out so idecided to show a t.v on a person thats a hardcore eater and competes in eating contests. So i took a picture of my sister eating pizza. idk.

The second one is for the campaign, and I decided to take a picture on the effects of drunkdriving (thanks eliana.) So i took a picture of rachel holding a picture of the friend she just "lost' to drunk driving and how it affects everyone. With the second one i used the channel mixer to make it black and white.

Winter 2

Some more pics I took

Winter Video

Some of the pics i took this winter

Black and White 2

This is my second black and white photo. I used the channel mixer again and I think i emphasized on the red filter because it made more contrast between her jacket and the snow. I burned the snow a little bit where she was laying in it so it wouldn't be so dark. I like the angle that she's at, how it's not directly on top of her or just focused on her face.

Black and White 1

This is one of my black and white winter photos. I used the channel mixers and emphasized the green filter, I think that made it have contrast and look more balanced as black and white. I also lightened up her eyes to make them pop.

Cool Pic numba 3

This is my third cool picture. It is a little blurry but the color turned out good i think. I like how the trees are all covered in white.

Cool Pic numba 2

This is my second cool color picture. The sun wasn't out but I think there was color that showed up in the picture.

Cool Pic numba 1

I took this one last night at a 15 second exposure. I really like the reflection of the tree on the yard and how everything turned out blue.

number 3

This is my third photo for the thanksgiving assignment. I read an article about effects in photoshop and it was about the painting effect. I think this one turned out really cool.

number 2

This is my second picture for the thanksgiving assignment. I read an article about portraits, and then i read another article on some effects in photoshop. So i kind of took a portrait of my sister and then i added the posterize effect that was talked about in the article. You can notice the effect up close, but it really emphasizes her hair and her eyes.

number 1

This is one of my pictures for the thanksgiving assignment. The article i read was to "separate yourself from your clients," or give them space. so i had my sister walk down our driveway and do her own thing so i could "capture the moment." I don't like this one at all.

Medusa

This is the picture I took for Medusa. I wanted to show Medusa's evil side, after Athena turned her into a monster. She turned her hair into snakes and made her eyes turn anyone into stone. In order to modernize it I just made her hair really big and crazy. I changed the color of her eyes in photoshop to show that after Athena changed her, she could turn people into stone. I also put lots of makeup on her and intensified it to put focus on her eyes. I think it does look like a modern medusa because i changed her hair and make up the way i did. Instead of playing out the scene of medusa, and how she got to be the way she looks like, I just wanted to take a picture of how medusa "looked" afterwards, because we could only do one picture. I would have liked to do a bunch of different pictures as a series but since we could only do one I thought i would just put emphasis on just Medusa.

Series of 4-number 4

This is my last picture for the series of 4. This one really represents how i feel about my moms cancer right now, and how it makes me feel. If you notice her hair is the most messed up in this one, to represent that it gives me the most stress now than any other time of my life. It has been a way of life for me, with my mom going through her cancer, so that's why the vine is always there, representing the feelings, or just the cancer, even though its not a constant thought in my mind. So this one represents how it still makes me angry and makes me scared, but its not as intense as when i was younger because this is how i have lived my whole life, what i'm used to.

Series of 4-number 3

This is my third series of 4 picture. about 2 years ago, i was sooo mad at my mom for having cancer. I would get mad at her for doing something because she had cancer, and i hated the fact that it was happening and how it affected her. So this one really represents the hate i felt towards the cancer that my mom had, making me get angry at her. 

Series of 4- number 2

This is my second picture for my series of 4. It represents how at about age 10 i was just starting to understand it, and there was a lot of confusion in my life about the cancer and my mom. It also shows fear, which was a feeling i was starting to have at that time. So this one represents the confusion and understanding i was starting to have, instead of not caring about it at all. Also, if you notice in all of my series of 4's, her hair gets more and more messed up to represent the stress that the feelings bring.
