Week 9- Warhol




Craft: These images were made on the iPad app Brushes. I had to use multiple layers, hues, brush strokes, brush sizes, and colors to get the completed piece.

Concept; These are pictures of my classmates that I put my own twist on, using Warhol as my inspiration.

Composition: I am going to describe image 2. I wanted people to see was her face. That is why I made it grayscale. The second thing I wanted people to notice was her hair, so that is why i made it red. The last thing that I wanted people to notice were her clothes and background, so I kept them red and just used different hues & saturations of red.

Week 7- Eyes Only

Craft: I made this using the iPad app Brushes. I used multiple layers and brushes to create the look.

Concept: We had to find a picture of someone and only use their eyes.I chose Marilyn Monroe. I used a Bane mask from the Dark Knight movie to add to her face.

Composition: The first thing that I wanted people to see were her eyes. That is why I kept them original. The second thing that I wanted people to see was the Bane mask. That is why I had it take up most of her face. The last thing that I wanted people to see was the rest of her face and the background. That is why I kept it grayscale and black.

Week 13- Photoshoot 2 "10 Steps to Applying Makeup"





I was instructed to reshoot by Makeup Shoot using better lighting and showing my makeup utensils. The lighting is front lighting. I wanted it to look more like a flowy process over a snapshot.

Week 11- Photo Assignment "10 Steps to Applying Makeup"






 



For these pictures, the background for the most part is my bathroom door. In some pictures however, I allowed the palm tree shower curtain into the photo. In some of the pictures, I left the brushes or the makeup in the picture to give my audience more information about my 10 step process. I eliminated the rest of my bathroom decor (candles, towels, toothbrushes, etc).

Picture 3 has the best light. It would be considered right light. The light source is shining on the right side of my face illuminated that part. My nose catches some of the light, but basically acts as a divider causing the other side of my face to have a shadow on it. I eliminated everything in the background except for the palm tree shower curtain and my wood bathroom door. The colors are muted, so that is why I kept them. (They don't distract my audience). I did not add anything in the photo.

Week 10- First Photos-Controlling Light in Photography

For this weeks assignment I needed to take 10 photos. Each of these photos was taken in a different lighting.

The above photo is daytime light.

The above photo is right light.

The above photo is front light.

The above photo is inside light.

The above photo is outside light.

The above photo is a head & shoulder shot.

The above photo is a head to toe shot.

The above photo is left light.

The above photo is nighttime light.

The above photo is backlight.

The photo I am going to discuss is called the right light photo. In order to control the light, I shut all of the blinds and drapes. I also turned off all of the lamps and lighting fixtures other than the one I used to spotlight the right side of my model's face. Because of this, The background and left side of the face are dark and the only part illuminated and bright  is the right side of the face.
