my version of Vee Speers birthday party series

My version's of vee speers birthday party from sillyscotty

assignment 5

a summary of Annie Leibovitz 

• Her work is the so colorful and her style is so unique, she reenacts known things like Alice in wonderland, peter pan, sleeping beauty etc.
• she uses studios to create the beautiful backgrounds in all of her work. Also they are all staged, not natural she thinks carefully about every photo she takes and plans them.
• her work is very composition based, especially with the rule of thirds.
• her photo's have a very clear meaning and make you really think about the photo.

Depth Of Field

http://www.slideshare.net/33534894/basic-photography-depth-of-field?from_search=3

Basic photography depth of field from Jimi Kayode

A camera can only focus its lens at a single point, but there will be an area that stretches in front of and behind this focus point that still appears sharp.

i learnt it can change in size and can be described as either ‘shallow’ (where only a narrow zone appears sharp) or deep (where more of the picture appears sharp).
these were all done by me.

this image was done by John Hedgecoe, i think this is a good representation of composition because his hands are the focal plane and his head body arms are the brokeh.

this is the best one of my pictures of my ornament. the people are the focal plane and the rest of my garden is the brokeh. 

this is me doing many photos, using depth of field, of my ornament in my back garden. 

this is me trying to use depth of field on my two plastic ducks at home.

this is me using depth of field on my dad i think this one is on of the best one i have done so far, his face is the focal plane and the rest of the room is the brookeh

Lighting

The Magic of Light in Photography from sleet02italy

The use of light in a photograph can be the deciding factor of whether that picture will be spectacular or terrible. to much light can ruin a photograph hardly any light will make it not stand out very well so you just want enough. lighting is key in a photo and it can create a very nice picture.

i tried a different angle of lighting i think it is alright it could be better by making the light a little bit lighter than his face.

for this picture i tried to add mood to the lighting, the light is like his dreams and he is looking at it, and it is shining on him. it could be improved with he light being a bit brighter and jack being a bit lighter.

this image is done by Perou. i put it next to the
black and white one and the color
because they look kind of the same. just with
different objects. this image is a good image for lighting
 because he has lit up the persons face and cross. this
is very effective because they stand out on the person.  

i done the picture above and turned it into a black a white image. made his shoulder stand out and the light come out more. and his gun does not shine so much.

i think this picture is alright because the light shines off the silver ball and it makes your eye look at it first.

i think the lighting is done well here it shines off the tv.

i think this one is really good. i tried to get the light to shine through the tree.

in this image i think the lighting is a little to over powering.

in this image it looks like the light is climbing up the tree, as it is getting higher up the tree it is getting getting darker.

i think this image is really good the image effect fish eye really makes the picture really stand out. the light shines through the hall way 

Focus Point

Photography from OnaFontanet

FOCAL POINT is a object made to stand out in the image. It also is the thing that you will look at first on a image.

this was done by vee speers it is part of her immortal series. i think this shows a good focal point because his body really stands out from the green screen or painting. the edges of his body are really crisp and clear.  

Composition

The rules of composition - Photography from wdpsorg

I have learnt that composition is the placement or arrangement of visual elements in a work of art, as distinct from the subject of work.

this is a image by annie leibovitz part of her disney series. i think this image shows composition because of the items and people around the photograph and includes the rule of thirds which is that there has to be something different in every square. 

First analysis

this is a image of Richard Hamilton by John  Hedgecoe 

FACTIONAL: John Hedgecoe (24 March 1932 – 3 June 2010) was an award-winning British photographer and author of over 30 books on photography He established the photography department in 1965 at the Royal College of Art, where he was Professor from 1975 to 1994 and Professor Emeritus until his death. He was also Pro-Rector of the college from 1981 to 1993. His photographs appear in permanent collections at the New York Museum of Modern Art and London's National Portrait Gallery. The painting is based on a lapel badge that the artist saw on his first visit to America. .  Information found on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Hedgecoe

CONTEXT: the image was made in 1964. this is not a digital image.
TECHNICAL: i think he has used a DSLR camera to achieve such a good sharpness around the mans body. also if you look carefully enough you can see were this photographs light is coming from. it is coming from the window to Hedgecoe's right that is then shining on to the mirror. this creates a really nice affect.
AESTHETIC: i really like this photograph, i think it appeals to both sex's. i also like how the mirror or glass window says 'to me', which gives this image a bit of mystery, which i love with a          photograph
