Camera Angles and Technique

We were supposed to pick our Top 5 favorite angels so I picked these!

This is Extreme Long Shot

I love extreme long shot because it captures not only the person in the photo but everything that is going on around the person. It shows you easily what is going on around the person in the photo! As well as what they are working with.

Long Shot

Long shot is cool as well because not it shows not as much as the extreme but gives the person many places to lead too. I love this picture for it because it was taken from far away and just shows that she is doing her thing!

Medium close up

Medium close up is cool! I like it because it gives you a sense of closeness to the person but they are just chilling. It isn’t too close to wear it just makes you uncomfortable to look at the picture.

Extreme close up

Extreme close up is really fun! It makes it so you can see the small detail that you wouldn’t normally see is a picture. Like in this picture you can see the colors and detail of her eyes very well. You could use this if you are trying to get the intricate details of the scene.

Medium Shot

Medium shot is probably my favorite out of them all! I feel like it shows just enough of what is going on around her even though it is a blank background! It focuses right on her and only on her! I just like the feel of these and how they turn out!

Top Five

These are the top 5 favorite photos that I took this semester. I love how these turned out and am super glad i’m learned to be able to take these.

TV ad

This goes along with the radio ad that we made earlier this week. I had a fun time making this with Carrin at http://www.carrinnelsonphotos.wordpress.com We used her camera to video and used premiere pro to edit the videos and sound together.

60-Second Radio Ad

My friend and I made this radio ad for our digital media class! We used Adobe audio and had to make all of the sounds on our own. Except for the background music. We are going to make a video that goes along with it later. Hope you enjoy!

Indiviual Portraits

We have three different photos!

Head & Shoulders

Waist up

Full body

With these I had her pose the way she felt most comfortable and I loved taking all of these different varieties of pictures and being able to see which ones worked the best!

Posing People

This post is of my brother and my cousin! We are learning how to pose people correctly. So for my brother we have his shoulders going one way and they eyes going the other along with the head. With my cousin she has her shoulders facing towards the right her head more forward and her eyes to the left!

With these next photos we are editing them!

With this one I made the background black and white, I used a hue and saturation adjustment layer and turned the saturation all the way down, then I just brushed her out of the layer! I also made the color in her eyes pop out more with a vibrance layer.

This photo I needed to change the color of her jacket so I changed it from red to green! I think it turned out really well!

Digital Media Contest

Im submitting this for my digital media contest for vector graphs. Which is where we make something on illustrator. Vector graphics are mathematical equations instead of Raster art which is made with color pixels. This pictures is from of one of my school dances it was super fun!

15 second animation!!

This is my 15 second animations I used a lot of motion tweens and frame to frame drawing! I loved working with this and coming up with the idea.

It’s about this family sailing in there boat and the seagull scares the son out of the boat. So they come and help him back in. But this bird wouldn’t stop taunting the dad so he threw the life saver buoy at him but missed.
