Assignment 5- Final Images

Part1: 
The different way:

Composition:

Perspective and point of view: In this picture I tried to create an illusion. The camera angle I chose and the composition I created by making the image seem like I am sitting on the ground leaning on the wall, and also by gluing the coke cans on the wall make it look normal.

Background elements: When we look at this image, at the first glance one gets confused. But then by looking at the cars in and the building in the background, one can notice that its an illusion. 

Framing: One of the most important aspect to make this image to look like and illusion was to put the image at the perfect angle and rotate it appropriately. So positioned my tripod to take the frame accordingly.

Concept/Aboutness/Idea:

The concept of this image is to create an illusion in the viewers mind, which I believe the image does successfully.

Method/motivation:

My motivations behind this image was an inspiring image I found on the internet. I tried to be more creative than the original image by placing the cans on the wall and also using a more strong background.

Context:

This image is meant to create an illusion in the viewers mind and also to show how sometimes reality could be manipulated.


Part 2:


Comments from my classmates:
Great idea, the cars in the background gives the image a interesting appeal. Also the coke cans are working great in the image.

Part1: 
Friday the 13th Movie still recreation :

Composition:

Amount of subject to show in frame: I have included half of the body of the subject, because the reaction of the subject is majorly seen on her face and her hands. I did this this so the viewer can have a closer look at the the subjects reaction to understand the picture.

Lighting: I kept a single lamp in the room, right in front of the subject to give the picture this great color effect. I also did a lot of burning and dodging to the picture to darken the whole background and just show the subject with the smoke.

Orientation (portrait or landscape): I have clicked a portrait picture to get just the human subject without any other elements in the picture.

Concept/Aboutness/Idea:

I clicked the image to show the viewers a similar emotion as the original picture gives to the viewers.

Method/motivation:

My motivations behind this image was simply an already existing still form the movie Friday the 13th. I tried to recreate exactly the same scene, by having the smoke in the picture and also ans wet hair of the model. But could not get it totally right.

Context:

This image is to show a recreated scene from Friday the 13th.
Part 2:


Comments from my classmates:
Great recreation, Good work with burning and dodging. The models reaction could have been better. Also the makeup of the model could have been better. Smoke effect looks good in the photo.

Part1: 
Illusion :

Composition:

Perspective and point of view: My prospective was to match the actual car with the picture I clicked on my phone to create an illusion.

Focus: I had to keep the maximum depth of field in this picture, because I wanted the camera in my hand clear along with the actual car.

Orientation (portrait or landscape): I wanted to capture the car and also the background buildings in the picture, therefore Landscape was the best choice.

Concept/Aboutness/Idea:

I clicked the image to create an illusion in the viewers minds. They get confused, to see how half of the car is on the phones screen, and half of it is outside. It almost makes it look like I am holding a transparent glass and not a phone.

Method/motivation:

My motivations behind this image were a lot of advertisements I found on the internet which used magazines instead of a phone to create similar illusions.

Context:

This picture is to show an illusion of the car in the phone screen and outside together.


Part 2:


Comments from my classmates:
Great idea to create this illusion. Such advertisements are getting really famous these days. In the phones screen the buildings shorter height than real makes gives it a better appeal. Great Car.

Part1: 
Grief:

Composition:

Perspective and point of view:  Everything you see in the picture relates to the subject, and tell you something about the subject.  Also show the tension in the scene to the viewers.
Framing: Both these pictures contains elements in the frame which make the picture tell a narrative story.

Orientation (portrait or landscape): I have clicked a landscape an a portrait photograph, and one can clearly see the difference, how there is 

Concept/Aboutness/Idea:

I clicked the image to show a day in life when she is trying to do something serious, but even after several attempts she is unable to get it right.  And one can see the bin with a lot of crushed paper in it, she is having an alcoholic drink  too,  and of course her serious expression and the isolated space makes the photo serious.

Method/motivation:

My motivations behind this image was the image I presented in the class from constructed reality. The picture was based on the same concept to relate all the elements in the picture with the ongoing scene.

Context:

To show the tension, all of us go through sometimes in life.


Part 2:


Comments from my classmates:
Great angle, Good work with burning and dodging. The brick wall in the background, the subjects attire and also the contrast gives the picture a old look. The candle picture has great lighting/effect.
