In the 24 crayons project, I had to go around the school matching crayon colors with objects that have the same colors as the crayons. The hardest part of this project was when I had to find colors that matched the orange crayons. There were very few things that matched orange in the school. The easiest part was probably finding blue in our school. I learned that there is lots of blue in our school and not a lot of orange at all.

During this project, I went through a lot of trials and tribulations. Some of the challenges I experienced were finding a matching background for my crayons, and getting my camera to focus on really bland areas. Another challenge that I went through was trying to balance the crayons so you can see their labels. On the other hand, I also experienced a lot of easy moments. For example, one easy thing was when we had to actually take the pictures. Therefore, this was a good beginning project, and it was a good way to transition us into the rest of the semester. I learned that taking pictures is not as easy as photographers make it look. The picture I put above is my personal favorite out of all of my other pictures, which you can view by clicking here.

In the 24 color assignment, I had to take a box of crayons and match each color to something around my school. The most challenging task for this assignment was finding 24 different places to take my photos. The easiest part was actually taking the pictures. I enjoyed messing around with the lighting and the angels of the camera. My favorite photo I took is the one below.

While creating this project and taking pictures, I went through some great accomplishments and challenges. Some of the challenges were finding crayons that matched the background well enough to take pictures of. Another one was making sure I had all 24 colors and not having multiple takes of the same picture mistaken for another color. However what I found to be rather easy was the placing of the crayons and the balancing. Overall this was a good “first” project for us to do, it was an easy and smooth transition into our future assignments. I learned that when your camera wont focus or the picture just doesn’t seem to fit your expectations, try to take the picture from another angle. The picture above is the one I personally like the most out of all of the other pictures which you can see if you click here.

In this assignment I had a box of 24 crayons. I walked around the school looking for the best color matches for every crayon. The most challenging part of this assignment was finding exact color matches. The easier part of this assignment was finishing the pictures on time because we were provided enough time in class.
