I really had fun with this project. It was fun seeing what kind of pictures I could come up with. The self-portrait I choose to do was after I went mudding I took a picture of my muddy feet because it shows that I’m not afraid to get dirty and have some fun. I like to do stuff like that and not care what people think of me. For the portrait of someone else I choose to take a picture of one of my friends Lauren. I chose to have her walking out the doors to the school smiling showing that she is almost graduated and leaving the school to move on to a new chapter in her life. The group picture was just a picture of my friends in the hallway all just having fun and showing how seniors act, and how much fun all my friends have together when they are just goofing around. 4 Comments For this project I wasn’t sure what I really wanted to do so I just started drawing people and hoped it would turn out good. After I had a few of the children drawn I began to get an idea and that idea was that I was going to have four happy children that are just out and about exploring and having fun with each other and animals. The darker picture of the girl dresses in black is to show a girl that feels left out and like she doesn’t belong with the other children because she is different than them. While all the other children are having fun she just sits by herself and watches them from a distance. I decided to do this because you see this a lot in today’s world because people tend to leave people that are “different” alone because they think that they are weird. I also did this idea because I liked having not all children look the same because not everyone is the same and that’s also why I did them doing different types of activities. For these photos I found it difficult to find something to do. I couldn’t think of anything to do so I just started looking for different light sources in my room. I found a snow globe that I got from my aunt that lights up in different colors so I decided to just mess around with it for a while and see if I could get any good pictures and I did. The picture I got was the one that is titled “Angels all Around” I just really like that picture because it looks really cool with the different colors around the angel figure. The other picture that I really liked was the one called “Caught in the Light”. To get that picture I just used a glow stick I had and just stood in place and moved the glow stick witch created enough light to show the outline of my body and it created a really cool effect. The picture “Car in the Night” was used with the light from my phone. I just moved the camera in circles as my phone stayed in place and just so happened that it looked like a car. The last picture I have is called “Into the Mirror” and again I used the glow stick and stood in front of my mirror in my room and moved the glow stick in a circle and gradually moved it closer to the mirror to make the “black hole” kind of effect and I also tried to get my body in the picture a little bit to make the picture a bit more creepy. I chose to photograph these specific items around my house because of the impact they have made in my life. The Photo I took of the basketball shows how I would always get nervous about the games, but overall whether we won or lost I would always enjoy myself. My photo of softball shows how I have been in softball for 7 years and that it has become one of my favorite sports and how I will always love the game of softball no matter how old I get it will still be part of my life whether or not I am playing the game. The other photo I chose to photograph shows how I was raised. I was raised in a family with a lot of hunting, I have been hunting ever since I was born I have always been exposed to the wilderness and outdoors. My whole family grows up around guns and weekends that consist of heading out to the duck blind and overall just being with family and friends. |
