2-3 Edited images to Blog
Please turn in:
- 2 photographs of the SAME person that show very different personalities or moods.
- Change: Hair, make-up, clothing, props, lighting, background, location, angles, distance from the camera, framing, etc. BE AN ACTIVE PHOTOGRAPHER!!
- Try to set up scenes that convey very different moods or feelings. For example: innocent, mysterious, humorous, serious, playful, angry, energetic, depressed, dignified, loving, somber, etc.
Make sure to:
- Plan ahead and think about what type of portrait you would like to create dependent upon you subject (locations, clothes, overall look, etc)
- Use lighting to help you set a tone or mood
- Consider composition and use the rule of thirds to set the scene
- Stay in focus!
What should I think about?
- How can you visually show someone's personality. How can you make them look like they have different personalities? What do you need to charge to accomplish this?
- Think about what you are trying to say with the photograph.
- Is it just “pretty”, or are you trying to tell the viewer something?
