Photography.

My group was given a task of a photo activity- to take pictures which represents a word. Using certain camera angles and techniques can achieve this effect, but also the emotion in the persons face and the settings used can emphasise the feeling expressed in the photo.

Futuristic














This photo can be expressed as futuristic- I have edited it in a way the colour emphaised using chrome colours- which gives a metallic metal feel to it. The photo gives a mysterious feel- the girl is looking out of the window at a tall building making the future seem vast and big.

Claustrophobic

This photo gives a claustrophobic feel to it- the surroundings look unfriendly and dark- the girl is sitting in the corner looks trapped. She is spreading her arms out as if she wants to get out, emphasising her will to escape. I have edited it which focuses gives a spotlight effect on her but her surroundings are dim and shadowed out evoking the feeling of claustrophobia.



Paranoia














This photo evokes the word paranoia, the girl here is holding her head showing that she is suffering from something mentally. Half of her face is shadowed- giving a eerie feel to it and expressing confusion. I have edited this photo to make it black and white and emphasising the contrast of black and white to give achieve this paranoid effect.

Calm

I took this photo one day because of the beautiful sunset- the complementary colours in the sky was spectacular and very different than usual sunset colours. The colours used here are more colder than warm- expressing the calm feeling. The city lights and the fact that there are no moving objects or people in this picture also emits calmness and also express different emotions from viewing this scene.
