This project is one where we had to set a scene of a kitchen table. It is inspired by Carrie Mae Weems who originally created the idea to set scenes at her kitchen table. This project was also inspired by Justin Bettman who set up props in random locations around the world. I used the oval tool in Photoshop to create a oval where the top is along the lamp. Then i set the feather to 200 and inverse the oval. I would then adjust the brightness of the photo to get the dark curve a the top. If I had to choose one place to set up scenery I would chose Washington DC because the marble buildings in the background would improve the look of the far away shot. the rest of the photos are here.
Photos in motion
In this project we had to take pictures of items in motion. A set up that helped was to put the camera under the object to get a better more extreme angle of the action. A tip I would give for someone doing the same thing would be to be patient because the perfect photo wont always come quickly. If i could I would take a photo of soccer players. The rest of my photos are here.
