Poster

Film Poster

Here is the film poster that I have produced. I had to use Photoshop to produce my poster, but first I had to get a person to photo different poses to fit the film poster plan I had in mind. I want to make a serious, good looking poster which people would think that the film looks good and exciting because the poster only gives some much information away about the film. After the best shot I took, I looked online for a long road in a rural area where there's just the road. Finally after get two good images to match each other I had to edit my shot black and white and edit the curves to make some of the subjects dark spots darker making it more mysterious. finishing the photo itself i had to insert film poster information e.g. film company (universal), age rate, title and the directors credits.

Crawley Futures

 Crawley Futures

Here are my 3 Photoshopped images of photos I took of Crawley. What i learnt during this assignment was more about Photoshop and the tools to edit a photo professionally. This assignment took me overall a month to finish as the editing took he longest.

 

Here is my first and personal favourite image as this photo represent Crawley's future but a nature future where the world has become super Eco-friendly and have let nature grow over cities, forming waterfall, and jungles. For this image I had to use the crop tool, quick selection tool, lasso tool, rubber and the sharp tool to produce this image, the hardest bit to do was the waterfall going over the college and make it look as though the water flows over the college and the water crashing into the river lake.I also inserted a whales tail in the river lake making it look as though whales and sea life creatures live in the cities river roads.

 

Here I got a shot over Crawley from the top floor of college, from there i thought i could make it look as though the world had an never ending eclipse so there was no sun in the world. To do this i had to get a eclipse off from the internet, then insert it and enlarge the image to fit the sky, I didn't use a lot of tools to produce this image but I had to edit the curves and the lighting of the image to make the buildings dark but use some of the light to make it look as though people still use electricity the try and light up the world. 

 

Finally my last image that i have produced eclipse Photoshop image, but for this I want to make it as though someone from the future took this image in another place and another angle. Here i took a picture of the college tower block and then on Photoshop made it black and white. I had to edit the curves and lighting of the image to fit the eclipse perfectly into the photo and matching the lighting to the eclipse.

Evaluation

I think overall for this assignment I do well in as I have learnt to use Photoshop more professionally from when I first started using it. I think I have improve my Photoshop skills from the first Photoshop assignment I done to this assignment. To improve my work I could have used more of the Photoshop tools to produce my last two piece of work i think that could of made to image more exciting, also I could have looked on YouTube to find out more professional way to produce some images to help me and inspirate me. In comparison to other peoples work (professionals work) I think I am not work off with the pieces I produced but could learn a lot more to get my images and future images to professional standards.

Photo Portraiture 

Diane Arbus

One of Diane Arbus famous portraiture's was done on the Matthaei Family,were the mother "Gay Matthaei" hired Arbus to take a portrait of the Matthaei's. Thinking Arbus was just taking a portrait of the whole family acting happy in the family room, Arbus went on to photographing the teenage's and taking shots showing the 'true' family side of the Matthaei's, that was the teenage's being unhappy and weren't in they place because maybe they couldn't be who they wanted to be as they would of had expections because of their family line. This is why Diane Arbus was famous for doing portraits because she captured the true reflection of the subject showing he/she's true emotions instead of pulling a fake emotion to look nice in the photo.

Matthaei Family

Here is the daughter of the Matthaei family at the time, here was a typical teenage during the 1960's brought up by a rich family. Arbus captured Marcella Matthaei showing her true self, unhappy because her parents were choosing her decisions for her. This is what Arbus was good at, capturing people's true emotions in front of a camera, as everyone smiles nicely in front of a camera, but Arbus got them to show their true self by saying the camera isn't working, making the person drop their pose and revealing themselves.

Identical Twins

Identical Twins depicts two young twin sisters, Cathleen and Colleen Wade, standing side by side in matching corduroy dresses, white tights, and white headbands in their dark hair. Both stare into the camera, one slightly smiles and the other slightly frowns. The photo has been said to sum up Arbus’ vision.
The twins were seven years old when Arbus spotted them at a Christmas party for twins and triplets. The twins' father once said about the photo,'We thought it was the worst likeness of the twins we'd ever seen'.
