Final Photos Evaluation
I
am very proud to say that my photos turned out better that expected, which
resulted to feedback ‘mind blowing’. At first when it came to deciding what
theme I was going to do it, was very difficult for me to come to a conclusion of
what I wanted to do. So I decided to brainstorm and write down things I was
interested in. My first idea was to create this vintage American dinner look
with my model, wearing a bandanna on her head and a white shirt and a sweater.
I found an American dinner 10 minutes away from West India Station due to
location costing £50 an hour. Due no funding I had to change my idea.
My
peers gave me back some very good feedback their love all the photos especially
the ‘Chilled’ one. Their loved the simplicity of the photographs being in one
location, one light and one model with a plain background. One of my peers
suggested that next time I should have 3
sets of clothing for the model.
What went very good was
the shooting on the actual day when I was shooting in the Photography studio. I
had a kind of small idea of how I wanted my photos to turn out. Also what well
for me was I used a Nikon camera which was really cool because it was my first
time using that camera which gave me a challenge. The framing of my photographs turned out really
I have a improvement in my framing skills.
Things you could improve
on? The way I can improve for next time is to plan more and to try something
different with the lighting so maybe a silhouette light set up to add more dark
mood to the photo. One of many obstacles I had to over come was to chose my
best five photos and make all the photos correspond with each other.
My photos are very
appropriate for the magazine I think my photos are very iconic and gives the
viewer a story behind each photo. Also it has a simple but very Artistic feel
to it.
I strongly think that
the picture editor for Rolling Stones would definitely feel very happy to put
my photos in the magazine with a few tweaks.
What I will do next time
if I had the opportunity to do this task again is to shoot more photos and kind
of experiment more with the poses and the set design.
