Yesterday, we started to look at taking photographs of small figures such as little toys. Our task was to take photos of a toy soldier that was as small as our pinkies. We went outside the learning street which was our art class is, we used the plants as our setting where we will stand or put the soldier figures to make a scene.
We used a different kind of elements and objects to make the scene more appealing and astonishing. The purpose of this is to show the audience that we can use our skills and knowledge with only a little amount of materials and money free photograph. In addition to what elements and objects we used, we used the whole of the paintbrush, we used the background of a computer that was mountains and landscapes, we used the paintings of other students in Hornby High as our setting of photography, we even used a plastic bag because light reflects on the plastic, this is why the soldier with the black and white filter has a polished look.
I personally like these three because I think I applied the rule of thirds on this image, the plastic bag also made this pop out and instead of just using a black and white filter and just a soldier, using a plastic bag confound.
Kia Ora Skyler,
ReplyDeleteTerrific mahi! Tau kē! The third and fifth images shot outdoors on a very windy afternoon are my favorite. But I like the experiments that you have created using plastic bags and adding backgrounds as well. Keep using the rule of thirds, especially in situations where you can photograph objects near and far away in the same image. You create an interesting atmosphere in the last three images. Tell me more about the angles and the action you are creating in these pictures.
