Propsoal

For my project I will be taking picture of a bottle of some sort, my iPhone and any other electronical or modern device I can find that is rather colourful to take pictures of. The reason for this is to get a better outcome from my images so they are better to change the saturation and the colour balance.

The images that inspired be are the usual basic pictures where there are multiple of the same picture but with different colours, how ever there is a very creative picture of yoda sniffing a chanel bottle but whats really good about the picture is down to the colour pallet and pattern matches the unique vibe it gives off and no image in the picture looks out of place. The only downside is I dont have the creative ability to recreate this image.

Things I have to keep in mind is the lighting and make sure my photo comes out as bright and HD as it possibly can because it allows for better editing and more creative use, I need to makes sure im being as safe as possible not just physically but also security of my images making sure I have more than one copy in case its corrupted and I lose my work

Memory Check

Q1 – Detail two reasons why we change the ISO

 We change the ISO to get good quality photos and find the perfect balance of detail and brightness some shot require a lower ISO but sometimes you need a faster shutter speed.


Q2 – Explain the difference in depth of field between a wide and a narrow apature

 A Narrow aperture allows more detail in the back ground to be shown, this is used when taking pictures of things in the distance like whales, islands and other events to create a deep depth if field.
A Deep aperture allows you to focus on something up close like a horse or a portrait making the background blurred so it can add focus to a certain object.

Q3 – List four consideration your had to take into account when producing your pop-art photography. For example, depth of field, shadows etc)

Aperture - Change the aperture to create a deep depth of field to fit deeper object with out making anything blurred.
ISO - Use a Low ISO to capture all the detail, making it a better quality picture and easier to edit.
Lighting - Lighting will be used to eliminate any shadows in the photo to edit the picture easily.
Safety - check for safety hazard so i don't injure my self or damage the camera and equipment, so that means any wires that are on the ground.


Q4. Describe when would you choose to use the ‘A’ and the ‘P’ modes on a camera

A - You would use this mode when you want to control the aperture in order to control the depth of field.

P - you would usually use it if you want the camera to auto adjust to it usually in standard photos

Lighting Diagram

this picture comes close to the same set up as i'll be using to take my picture. Its has similar components one of them is having an over head lamp to add brightness and get rid of any shadows in the image making it a crisp white background, the camera is on a stand that will be facing downwards with another lamp on the side to get rid of any excess shadows.
