Light Graffiti

Light Graffiti

For this project, we used digital cameras to capture light drawings. To make your drawings, you have to use a bright light that will show up on a dark background and a light that your camera can process. My group used our phones and downloaded an app that had neon colors to add a pop…

Up Close

This project was one of my favorites this quarter. I used my Nikon camera to get up close to different plants and objects to capture the small details that you usually wouldn’t notice. The main idea of this project was to get up close and find small details. I tried using both my phone and…

Lego Stories

In this project, we took photos of legos up close. Similar to the Macro project, you had to move your camera extremely close to capture the “small” world. This was challenging because you couldn’t use objects that were human size, they had to be lego size to fit in their world. I would love to…

Action

In this project, we took photos of moving objects or things to capture photos of them in motion. To capture a good quality photo, we used a burst mode to take a bunch of photos at the same time. I would love to take action shots of people playing soccer in the future. This project…

Framing

In this project, we had to find objects that could make a natural frame of something. This assignment was similar to the rule of thirds, because when you look at a photo that uses the framing technique, your eye goes straight to whats inside the frame.

Rule of Thirds

For this assignment, we had to take photos inside and outside using the rule of thirds technique. To take a successful photo using this technique, you have to align an object or a person using an imaginary grid. The grid is split into thirds, and you place objects you want to stand out on the…

Portraits (white background)

To take photos for this assignment, it was very similar to the process of taking the black background photos. We had to change the IOS, so a shadow wouldn’t show up on the white background. In photoshop, we also changed the brightness to help erase shadows.The white background was easier with natural lighting to erase…

Portraits

Portraits

In this project, my group took photos of each other against a black background. In Photoshop, we used curves to adjust the color levels of our photo. We had to change the ISO lower because of light sensitivity against a dark background. This was a fun project because you got to play around with the…

5 Shots

5 Shots

click here to find my photos. In class, my peers and I were asked to find 3 objects and take 5 photos of each object. The twist on this project was we had to take the 5 photos all from different angles. It was a challenge to find different angles for each object. The most…

Crayons

Crayons

For this assignment, my classmates and I had to take 24 pictures of crayons blended in with objects of the same color. This project was very difficult to find colors exactly like the crayons. Especially in our school, a very non colorful place, we had to be very observant of our surroundings. It was easy…
