Evaluation

Our brief for the topic was to research and create a pop art picture using Photoshop. I started out by researching the origins and how pop art was first created, I didn't have much luck as all the information really told me was when and who and not how. Afterwards I went on to look at other inspiring pictures and grabbed a total of 10. the characteristic of these photos where all modern pictures but with very vibrant colours. I also went into looking at set ups for the photo shoot and annotated a nice picture that fit what ours looked likes.

I had to set up out camera onto its stand, the softbox lamp that creates no shadows on the table making it easier to edit and I also set up another lamp to also create no shadows in the back ground. The camera was sitting on top of the flatbed. The camera settings were set to an ISO of 100 to capture all the detail and aperture to 3.2 how ether id prefer a 8.0 so it creates a deeper depth of field.For my picture I went for a simple bottle as I thought editing the image would be easier with a bottle. It took me two tries to finally get a decent looking end result as the first one i didnt print screen my process and it was also really bad but the second time around i went over my mistakes and made a crisper looking picture, even if it still bad.

The project was enjoyable and the editing was good, if i could change anything in my project it would be the items I chose and I would of brought in more better items instead of a bottle like a potatoe to really grasp the randomness I found in my research.
