Freak or Unique Jess T: Marks Evaluation

In my first week I had come onto the course, not knowing nothing previously being on the course last year. And not being able to finish based on personal reasons!

Despite the fact of me not being able to focus last term.

This term I have managed to create and learn more then I actually thought I could, by basically learning the basics of photography, which our topic was freak and unique we had to discover images and relate to them, in what editing procedures some images had.

What images inspired me where based on the freak or unique topic, which where dark images I tried to replicate these image I tried to replicate the image, but added adjustments towards the image to make it more of my own!

There were so many images that I couldn’t decide to pick from because I was so intrigued by their photography skills, I attempted to replicate some images! I tried to replicate this image, but added adjustments towards the image to make it more of my own!

I had to research 10x freaky images, which then added to my final piece, I had to choose from 10 images that I would familiarize myself with to make my final images.

The characteristics of unusual photography in my opinion is if once you know the purpose, it’s a matter of looking at how effectively the artists technique, composition, style and subject contribute towards that purpose. If they all work well towards ‘explaining’ the meaning to the viewer, the photo is a success so by contributing in lessons and asking questions will help.

During these 5 weeks I have motivated myself to try my best, and officially try and do the work I didn't manage on doing last year, still knowing part of these basics, but this half term I have managed to keep my goal attained and to make sure my work is done before my deadline, quite frankly I didn’t think I would be able to attain nor finish my work, last year I didn’t pay much attention either, considering it was harder last year, due to not having the blog , plus this much help I think that this has made it more easier, and I have thoroughly accepted the fact that I have this much work to do.

Despite the fact of much having to be done, I reckon I had somehow succeeded, comparing how I didn’t have a clue how to use a camera, I now know the usage of the camera and how to take images with the camera justifying its usage, and how to make the image clearer/brushed and how the image, can also be faulty by not doing the right things nor to make the camera work how it’s supposed too!

In marks lessons I have learnt how to also keep the equipment controlled what to do, and what not to,

I know not to touch the light barn, because it’s hot and it will burn you, also to learn the hot equipment out, considering it being hot!

I have learnt the different basics of the camera we had the diagrams that were used to help use understand the camera more! I enjoyed this topic because it showed me also the different dialogs with me only presuming it was an easy topic which it actually isn't, I have been helped loads in this lesson, and actually enjoyed it!

Below are parts of the project!

Rule of thirds

They compose photograph cropping, plus certain areas focused.

Birds Eye, looking from the top, including leading lines.

I can do a proportion of different imagery / composition framing, and the differences between white balance and the rule of third.

I made my own image by taking images, and the image that I liked best I had to edit it, and turn it into something different.

In this image it shows different properties, in which a camera can be used by.

It shows how many proportions a camera actually has.

we see this by not knowing the actual uses of the camera ,that's why we have these diagrams and labels that have been made, to explore more about camera use, so we can acknowledge the camera.

I had to use a diagram so I could know the usage of the camera.

how to start the camera, how to also press the shutter,
