Lo3 P3 Take photos / videos of me taking photographs

P3


In this video I have shown how I have used the camera settings to take specific images and show what happens. The video goes over how I manipulated the aperture, shutter speed and file type off the camera, so that I could get the most perfect shot.

I plan on shooting a night shot that includes motion. To execute this style I would need to control my shutter speed and utilise a tripod to achieve a very steady shot. Setting my shutter speed to ten seconds meant that the picture would take ten seconds to capture all of the image. This meant that it the camera would capture all of the motion and light in the image, allowing it to create a very beautiful image that shows the motion of cars on a motorway. 


In this photo of me with the camera I was decreasing the aperture so that I could achieve a blurry background in the images. Doing this would allow me to capture a depth of field within the image and would make the object in the foreground pop out from the background. I could also do the opposite, and increase the aperture, allowing me to obtain a very sharp image that incorporated a large amount of detail. I will use this technique when shooting landscape images as it will allow me to capture a lot if detail in the background. 


In this image you can see how I rated each image in Lightroom based of how I think it fits with the Topic of 'Beautiful Doncaster' and how good each shot was taken. The images that I liked will be edited in Lightroom. 

This image below was taken at the Doncaster train station near Frenchgate. I like this image because it makes Doncaster look large and open. However, It needed to be edited as some areas in the photo were too dark and didn't look good in the image overall. 


Seen below is the contact sheets that includes all 70 unedited images that I took, over my time in this unit. I am very happy at how I have improved as a photographer, and how I have utilised different skills such as gold ration, rule of three, and flowing lines which all helped my photos become more interesting and beautiful.

Lo2 M2 Legal and ethical issue when filming

Image
M2  I have been commissioned by the Doncaster Council to take photos that show the beauty that is hidden in Doncaster. This will result in me interacting with people in public spaces. This is my report about the legal and ethical considerations that I will need to follow when shooting outside in public. If I do not follow these requirements, I could potentially cause harm to people or damage the equipment I am using.  Legally, I am allowe d to shoot  outside  in public. It  isn't   illegal  to film or capture people in shots as long as they are in a public space.  If I am taking photographs from private land, you need to have the land owner's permission. With this though, there are many ethical considerations that I would need to consider before taking pictures of people. I do not want to capture photos like Bruce  Gillman as he purposefully gets close to peoples face in order to capture a picture that shows the shock and the chaos of a ...

Lo2 P2 Plan a shoot

Image
Explain the purpose of my photoshoot  -I have been comitioned by the council to capture a lot of beautiful areas that are hidden in a town that has garnered a lot of bad press. I will use areas such as the giant painting on the wall near the bus station, this is a great area that shows the progress that Doncaster has undertaken and how it has used something like graffiti to its advantage in making Doncaster a more beautiful area.  Moodboard  I plan to use the styles of Documentary and Urban landscape to show the Beauty of Doncaster.  Plan 10 photos -A photo of the giant painting on the wall near the bus station/ I will stand at an angle which shows the best view of the wall. I would then take a landscape photo of the picture. I could take it from either inside or outside the French-gate, I will try both so that I could get the best photo.  -The church that is near the town centre/ This is a very old place in Doncaster that holds a lot of history, I could shoot h...

In this image you can see how I rated each image in Lightroom from 1 to 5 star based off how I think it fits with the Topic of 'Beautiful Doncaster' and how good each shot was taken. The images that I liked will be edited in Lightroom. The images that I rated 5 stars will definitely be used in my final product and be edited in Lightroom, where I will change the saturation, contrast, and delete unwanted things in the image using the healing brush.  Images that I felt were blurry and unfocused were discarded and I rated them a 1 star. However images that I felt could be better when edited were labelled 3 stars as I could try to make the image more appealing when editing it. Along with this, I labelled photos such as the TGI Fridays image and the motorway image 5 stars. This was because they were excellent shots that needed minimal editing to make better.  As you can see, I have rated this image 5 stars. That is because I enjoyed the shot composition and perspective that we're...
