Week 2- Photo Shoot






Craft: Use a camera to take pictures of objects that could be manipulated through photoshop. The purpose was to crop objects via photoshop.

Concept: I kind of took shots of objects. I used solid background, however the shots were not quality for cropping purposes. I was still able to manipulate them and practice improving my skills thus far.


Composition: Not knowing what exactly my project would be, I did not know how I should have took pictures of objects. I used a lot of angles and lighting in most of photos to make it appear more artistic and appealing to the eye. My favorite picture was the one photo of the spoons. I enjoyed the way I used the camera to get a different feel of depth for this photo. I intend to take some different photos that I feel will help me better complete this collage project mentioned during the last class.
