Projector Project

This is how my photos from the practical turned out. I picked out my favourite shots to show on this post, I'm going to make another for all my shots.

It was a good choice. The only other editing i did was changing the shadows, midtones and highlights so they were balanced evenely.

The task was to create images by using a projector and a choice of picture for the overlay.

I used a Canon DSLR camera for this shoot. I was going to use a tripod, but i needed more freedom with the camera, I didn't use one in the end.

Because we were in the dark, I had to switch my camera to manual mode. I then boosted the In camera ISO for extra exposure in the images.

While editing the photos, I did two batches, I made one in colour and the other in black and white. I decided to go with the black and white because i thought the colours were too distracting in the original.

It was a good choice. The only other editing i did was changing the shadows, midtones and highlights so they were balanced evenely.

I love the texture and the patterns in the images. In some of the images i took, I used rule of thirds to even out the shots too.

I think turning them to black and white really gave the images a better look to them, More creative looking.

I think next time i could maybe be more creative with poses and use colours a different way in the next. shoot.

Final Project Inspiration

I have used multiple objects in my final project that are also used in the inspiration. I used Photoshop to manipulate the original image and create a sequence with the sun and moon. They have used a long exposure on their DSLR with a tripod to provide a bright and stable image. They also edited the images to make it even brighter and sharper as there will have been lots of noise in camera.

How I created my Final Project

I began by using my DSLR and a tripod to shoot a video of myself doing different poses that I had planned. I imported the video to my phone and took pictures of the poses I liked. I sent the photos to my laptop and opened Photoshop. I first made the landscape I wanted by using images I found online. It meant I had an original I could go back to if there were any mistakes. I then opened up the first image of me, masked myself out and dropped myself in the landscape image. I did the same steps here for each image. Now I had all my images for the sequence, I could start adding details, such as the moon, shadows, light, trees, and the Ladder. After I had blended the images and details to make it more realistic, I added the light. I used a soft brush and gently added it in and painted in the shadows. Next thing I did was cropping the images. I wanted to have certain crops to draw the eye to the subject more. So I changed some into a 16:9 Ratio. It made them loo...

It includes digital editing, using a darkroom with alternatives, using your camera settings differently or making collages. Alternative process means and refers to any non-traditional or non-commercial photographic printing process. A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens but with a tiny aperture.
