Planning: Photo shoot: Editing


- Out of my lockdown photo shoot I chose the most effective ones to then proceed and edit. What makes this photo the best is due to the focus of the image being the daisies in the foreground and not the model doing the splits in the background. Its taken from a low angle and its also a long shot as you can see the models whole body. As its taken from ground level you can see details like the individual daisy petals and the stems of those flowers. The white and yellow daisies provide an interesting colour contrast from the vivid green trees in the background and the grass. The outlook is naturalistic and aesthetically pleasing to the viewer. It's also good due to the outdoor setting and having natural lighting. As your eyes scan across you see more and more interesting details, from the green tree skyline and the model itself is doing the splits which is cool to see. However with all these good details I wanted to enhance it even more.

- This is the edited version of the original imagery. What I have done is changed the whole colour tone and by doing so I've enhanced even more the details of the daisies and grass in the foreground so its even clearer to see the petals and each individual stem of grass. The blue skyline is more visible poking through the trees and the model itself is more tanned and outlined.

Editing wise I:
- Reduced the overall brightness to make it more neutral toned
- Reduced the contrast giving the flowers details
- Increased the colour saturation making the yellow in the flower bolder and the model more tanned
- Reduced the image highlights so more focus is on the flower
- Lastly added some shadows and sharpened the image to give the photo a toned 'indie' filter creating the final outcome.

- I also chose this photo to enhance by editing. I liked how the flames looked so I proceeded to edit them. This is a close up shot of the wood we were burning outside, taken from a low angle with the wood fire being in the foreground and the trees in the background. The shot is taken outdoors used with natural lighting the fire creates a sense of realism. I managed to capture a shot of the flames looking larger on the wood which is helped by the angle I took them. The bright bold reds and oranges coming from the fire is a complete opposite from the green scenary clearly seen in the background. The fire itself is the centre piece. 

- Regarding the editing I applied the same treatment as the other one but added more contrast so i could really enhance the bright colour and shapes made by the burning flame on the wood. It also enhanced the colour satuartion of the trees making them appear more green and vibrant.

Jungle Book Character Comparison

Image
 Mowgli 1967                                                                      2016 - A c lear difference between the 1967 version and the 2016 Mowgli is that one is a drawn animated and the other is a real life actor. Both have a similar body type and the actor used in the 2016 version is from India which is keeping in line that the film is set in the Indian jungle. Furthermore, he is seen as innocent looking in both however the 2016 Mowgli seems more competent in the Jungle. Baloo      1967                                            2016      - One difference is that Baloo in the 2016 is much larger and bulkier and is much more of a bear rather than the fun cuddly loo...

Best & Worst Images Analysis

Best 3 photographs- This is one of my best photographs I captured around school it follows the rule of 3 and rule of odds where you can see the left wall, the girl and then the right wall. The shot is centre frame from a low angle where the floor takes up a third of the image. The person in the centre is almost a silhouette and you can’t see many features. The overall tone is dark but there is a break of daylight at the very background of the image which is very complimentary to the other features. This is another of my best photographs I captured around school. It’s a similar format as the first as in being in the same area. It follows the rule of thirds as the wall in the image takes up 2/3 of the image but a way to improve is that I could add something else in the image would create a rule of odds. T he model is posing against the wall that predominately takes up the entire image and the darkness of the wall contrasts the bright daylight. It’s a right frame mid shot....

Planning: Photo shoot: Photographs that may be useful

- I took multiple pictures of the same shot and they all came out interesting in their own element.  - They are all close ups - Taken from a low angle to emphasise the shapes of the flame - Taken outside using natural daylight- potentially even the light provided by the fire - I liked the shots were the sunlight is peeking through the trees in a dappled effect- even creating some interesting shapes which I managed to capture - The trees are in the background with the wood fire in the foreground- highlighting the main piece of the photo - No clear rule of odds but rules of thirds can be seen as the fire takes up the bottom 1/3 of the image leaving the top 2/3 with the naturalistic scenery  - Good contrast between bold orange/red fire and the delicate green background scenery. - Close up of leaves in tree- with one specifically in focus - Taken from a low angle with the camera looking up to create an interesting perspective - Dark shadows clear on m...
