Action

The concept of this project is to focus on taking photos of a person in movement. When I was taking my photos, I wanted most of them outside, I used the clouds in some of my photos to capture my action photos. If someone else were to create action photos, I would recommend them to be patient because these shots take time. If I could take an action photo of something else, it would be a cat yawning.

Framing

For this assignment, we had to pick a subject (person or object) to frame to make the photo interesting. The project of framing the subject and the rule of thirds both have a relationship with each other. The rule of thirds has imaginary lines to make the photo have more than one focus, while framing has a physical structure surrounding the focus in the photo. I picked this photo below because the frame is the branches, which surround Marelin as the focus. When I was working on this project it was kind of difficult for me to find the right frame for the photo. Click here to see my photos

Rule of Thirds

When I was completing this assignment, it was kind of hard putting a person in the photo to meet the requirements, but when it came to landscapes it was easy. At first, I thought this project would be pretty easy, but when I started working on the assignment, it got a bit difficult. I learned that the Rule of Thirds can be a helpful technique for photographers but can be difficult to use when trying to take the right shot. When I took the picture of my neighbor’s cat, I put her eyes on the right side of my photo to make her eyes the main focus. Then when I took the picture of Hannah I put her in the edge of the right side of my photo where she is the main focus. But at the time Samantha’s hand was more on the left side of the photo, so the corner of the viewer’s eye can transfer from Hannah to Samantha’s hand and the camera.

Black Background

When I was doing this assignment, my group had to adjust the ISO on the camera to make it look like an infinite background. We had to make the ISO lower and darker, then when it was time to edit, I used the brightness to make myself look brighter but the background darker. The ISO made a great impact on the photo. But while we were taking the photos it was kinda hard to see our faces.

White Background

When I was taking my white background photos, we had to set the ISO on a higher sensitivity, but we had to be careful with shadows. We had to make sure it didn’t look like we were taking photos behind a blank piece of paper. It made a difference when we were setting the ISO settings on high and it made the photo better. But the challenge was trying to kill the shadows that interfered with the photos.

24 Crayons

For the 24 crayons assignment, we had to find objects that match the crayon color. A challenge that I faced was finding the right or similar color to the crayon. It was very easy take the pictures because the crayon was very small.

5 Shots

In this assignment, we had to take pictures of five angles but with one object. We had to take a total of fifteen pictures with the three objects we’ve chosen. A challenging part that I faced with this assignment was figuring out the five angles for just one object. My hardest object was the drum sets because the object was in a really tight space and it was hard to take different angels. This project helped me find new angles for different objects.
