Final Project - Lens Based Image Making

1. Sports photography

Sports photography is achieved with a DSLR with high shutter speeds. Lenses are needed to go in closer or away to keep up fast enough with the sport going on.



2. Still Life

Still Life is where you photograph an object(s), 'depicting inanimate object matter'. Objects photographed are usually wine glasses, food, flowers and so on.



3. Landscape Photography

Landscape photography is pictures of various places around the world. Landscape photography mostly captures the feel and atmosphere. Places photographed include mountains, waterfalls, beaches, fields etc, all of which have no people included as the aim of landscape photography is to show off the natural environment.



4. Reportage/Journalistic

This is where the reporter is the photographer. They take pictures as things happen, like people standing around, walking by etc.



5. Macro

Macro photography is extreme close-up photography in which the size of the subject is bigger than life size. Macro enables small things like insects, snowflakes and other tiny objects. It is done by 35mm equivalent magnification.



6. Portraiture/Figurative

Portrait photography is obviously a photo of a portrait of a subject. The focus of the photo is often the persons face but can include some of their body as well as show the background.



7. Advertising/Commercial - fashion

Advertising/commercial is to sell something. They sometimes do it by using a model to show off the clothes or product.



8. Fine-art

Fine-art photography is getting a shot of a subject with good lighting and the best environment, apparently it 'depicts high quality and beauty'.

Final Project - Designs So Far

This was created on Photoshop with my tablet. I got the idea for this by wanting a grungy, sketchy design for one of my posters. After feedback, I got told to add a logo and change the colour of the fire and this was the result.

For this I had to do a far east market design so I did Japan. I like how I made the colour scheme red since it fits Japan very well. I also think the font with the sun behind was good. I got good feedback for the background going well with the poster. This may be my final design as I think it's the best one I made.

For this design, I got inspired by Matt Needle. I like how it has a kind of 'cyberpunk' look which I realised after making it. I wasn't sure about the font for the name of the band so I eventually changed it to the other logo.

For this design, I was looking through old pics I could use and found this, then after I simply did a hue/saturation to get the colour and then found a good enough font for the logo.

For this I was experimenting with all sorts of effects on Photoshop because I wanted to make something vibrant and mad, and eventually I made something which resembled an explosion (or paint splatter according to others but eithers good).

For this I got inspiration from a poster where it was one colour with plenty of pictures, typography, effects, etc used in the background. The first one I had the main subject completely green but after feedback, I was told it was be better if I changed it to white with an outline to contrast with the green.

For this poster, I wanted to create something completely different so I got the idea to make something look tribal. Also, I got an idea to add 'twins' since thats in the band name so I did two of those statues, and along with the font it came out how I wanted it to look for once. I made an alternate version because I was unsure of the colours, I got good feedback anyways.
