Experimenting with graphic design

 Graphic Design Inso-


Annotations-

For the next part of my project I will be looking at incorporating photos with graphic design/ illustration and printing it out. I chose to do this because I think it will add extra to the photos and I would like to incorporate more colour into plainer images. 

First experiments using other peoples designs-

Evaluation-

These editing came out very effectively. I like the contrast between black and white images and bright colour.

Filming Experiments

 Experimenting filming around my garden- While in self isolation I decided to practise filming on my canon 7d, I have not filmed before is it was good to get used to the settings. I found it difficult to keep the camera still as I didn't have a tripod so the footage came out bit wobbly. I used iMovie to edit the clips together which worked out quite effectively, it was easy to edit on however I will be learning to use adobe premier when back in collage to learn techniques such as  colour correction, sound and editing clips together smoothly.  I used manual focus which worked well in blurring the background and focusing on the foreground. I am very pleased with how this little short clip has turned out and can't wait to experiment filming surfing. To improve I would use a tripod to make the movement smooth. Clips from last summer-              These 2 clips were taken last summer when I first found ...

Shoot 4

Image
Shoot plan- The idea behind this shoot was to work in inspiration from Woody Gooch, I wanted to focus on capturing abstract images from unique compositions. I wanted to look at surf scenes from a different angle to capture a unique photo. I am intending to experiment with slow shutter speed and a 75-300mm lens so I can try to capture super close up perspectives. I have previously tried to capture slow Sutter images but always wanted to get a super close up of longboard cross stepping- the focus being on the surfers feet while the movement is blurred around them. This will be my aim for this shoot swell as using slow shutter on landscapes to obscure the figures walking out. My photos will work aesthetically by creating a set of 3 which match together, with similar colour schemes. I have previously conducted a shoot in inspiration from Woody Gooch which turned out effectively howe...

Hugh Holland

Hugh Holland artist research  Hugh Holland is an influential skate photographer who captured the unique style of Californian skaters in the 70's. Starting skate photography in 1975 he captured the famous z-boys which was just the beginning of skateboarding as a sport. Hugh used canon film cameras and 35mm film to capture the grainy, retro look in a soft quality. He captures skaters carving drainage ditches and empty pools, his favourite subject is the figure- you can see how he focuses on the skaters body shape as the momentum and speed moves them. The beauty and grace of skating is shown throughout his images, most prominent in his black and white stills. In these images the pictorial space is shallow as the figure is close and the main focus with mostly pain background, there isn't any layering of the foreground or overlapping of objects. The use of shadow anchors the figure and adds contrast to the image. There is no sense of scale in these images as the figu...
