The open Door

this shot was me being bored and working on my composition in the dark one day after class. The lines of the door leaves you wondering whats happened and the sense of beign left hanging was really what i was striving for. The subtle arch but rather sharp arch that is the door really just kinda maks me mad because i cant get rid of it, the line doesnt flow and and causes most of the suspense. The Square that is the light switch really attrachts attention due to its diagonal line pointing down causign teh viewer to be attrached to it. Over all i was very pleased with the shot but if there was someway i could have just excluded that line and made another source of focus then the shot would have be most exceptional.

Dan and His Book

This shot i was not really striving for composition but more avoiding mergers due to i was later going to threshold the shot and use it in a graphic for class. The expression on Dans Face is lost and doesnt draw atention not to the face but more the book. the book was the center of attention and it doesnt serve much of a good center of attention. Colors are very well done t hey really really pop in that background and i was quite pleased. overall this wasnt my favorite shot but due to my over run scheduale i dont have much time to shoot right now so this had to do.

OV Lacrosse Club Logo beginning

           Well thinking of a team name and a logo that not only was appropriate but more catchy and liked by most was probably the hardest task I had to overcome. The colors were already chosen for the team so the name was just the hard part. Communication went great I had great in put from the team and with the coach as well as the parent board. Many kids on the team thin we should continue thinking of the team name but the color pattern and the layout for the last one I did turned out great and should be applied to the final team name. I worked on one logo a night and came out with 7 logos in a week and then for the team meeting I turned them all in and had the team vote on the three they thought were the best and any comments they had as far as team name and colors go. I deserve an A on this project because of the time I put in with my client working and refining the logo and team name and even though I didn’t get a catchy team name, I did show them a very nice layout and they did love everything I put in front of them.

Studio Opening shot

Critique of Fluent Motion

 

The main focus of this shoot wasn’t to show poverty or anything like that, I’m just trying to show life at a peaceful moment unlike the world around us at this current moment. My focal point is the peace and tranquility in the world around us. The main focus is the water coming from the pipe and the nice gentle curve that is made from the water. The curve gives the entire shot a gentle sort of feel to it while at the same time there’s still this motion moving appearance to it making the picture still fun to look at. This photo is much different that anyone else’s in the fact that it actually portrays a calm yet moving subject. If I could change anything about the shot I probably wouldn’t, the black and white conversion was a great transfer and the sharpness is rather amazing. The fact still is, I’m not so convinced that this was the smart picture to turn in for the gallery. There really needed to be a different shot for this one I feel and that the class a whole may have cheated themselves out of a bit of shooting time so I mean there’s no really reason I couldn’t attempt more shots but there just wasn’t enough time to set up for models and or a ride to the location or even just a simple light or two to shoot with. Overall the shot didn’t turn out to bad for a fast quick shot. There needed to be more time.
