Idea
My idea for this shoot was to look at documentary photography and practice that by taking photos of the boat and objects in it and around it in a documentary form.
Evaluation
What worked?
I really enjoyed the documentry and photographing the boat. I enjoyed exploring the different parts of it and trying something new.
What didn't, how could this be improved?
I need to learn how to adjust exposure on the camera manually as that was a big struggle for me and ruined some photos. I am going to learn how to do this better so next time its perfect.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea?
Work on making the lighting better to get a better outcome of my photos as well as photographing my Dad. This is his favourite thing and I would love to capture these moments of him doing what he loves.
Idea
My idea for this shoot was to create a water background in the bath to give a more beachy ocean scene. I placed objects in the water giving it a ripple effect, however, the exposure was terrible and I couldn't figure out how to get it good.
Evaluation
What worked?
I liked playing around with the water and different elements.
What didn't, how could this be improved?
once again the exposure and shutter speed just ruined it for me. I can improve this by adjusting lighting and practicing more.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea?
Make the lighting better, maybe move into a studio to have those lights and make it brighter.
Idea
My idea for this shoot was to experiment more with still life, using fishing magazines and equipment to create cool and interesting photographs.
Evaluation
What worked?
Still life/ flat lay worked very well with my theme. It tied in nicely with all my images and had a good effect on my board.
What didn't, how could this be improved?
Next time i could add in more objects creating a fuller look and make it look more busy.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea?
add in more objects and use different colours to reflect nicely.
Idea
My vision for this shoot was to add more objects into my still life images and make them look more busy as well as adding in colour to create a cool effect. I think this shoot came out nicely all around.
Evaluation
What worked?
My second still life shoot came out well. I added in different colours as well and placing the objects differently. I shot from different angles and i think the end result was great.
What didn't, how could this be improved?
I can add in different things and play around with different equipment and different sized things.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea?
use different sized objects and different lighting.
