5 Shots

5 Shots

During this assignment, we had to take 5 pictures each of three, unmoved objects. It sounds pretty straight forward and simple, however the purpose of the lesson is for each photo to be at a different angle and camera position. This means that each photo has to show a different side or view of the object without moving it, but only moving the camera around. The challenging part of the project was to get the camera into a position so I could take a picture of (mostly the back) of the objects. It was very fun and interesting to see how the background, source of lighting, and position influenced each outcome of the photo. My favorite set of photos are the ones with my sister in it because she is the best person in my life. The assignment helped me know how to make pictures more eye-catching and interesting to look at. I really enjoyed this project and can’t wait to see what I’ll have to do next!                                                                                                             -Marie Valouiski

24 Colors

24 Colors

For our second project, our class was given an assignment to take 24 different pictures using 24 different colored crayons on 24 different surroundings that matched each crayon. It was pretty simple to find possible objects to use, sense the school building was abundant with many things in many colors. The camera I used also easily took perfect pictures both in lighting and angle. The difficult part, however, was to find an object that matched the crayon PERFECTLY (tone, shade, tint, etc.). But, I think all turned out well in the end.                                                                                                                                           -Marie Valouiski
