week reflection


Monday we went to the NEC in Birmingham for the focus on imaging event. It was really interesting. They seemed to show a lot of lighting there more than anything else which I didn’t really like. I was really interested in some of the lenses they were selling. Especially the fish eye lenses which I am considering buying. I was shocked at some of the prices of some equipment. I didn’t like how there were so many people there trying to show off there cameras when there wasn’t really anything good worth taking pictures of. When we got back from Birmingham we had to upload the first part of the we british assignment. I have decided on my final ideas for the second part of this assignment and am going start shooting the test shots this weekend. I am feeling confident about this assignment and feel I could have some strong final images. We also made a magazine cover so we know what to do when we have our final images. To be honest it was fairly easy and I was quite proud of mine. The magazine I have decided to make a cover for is sidewalk magazine which is a English skateboarding magazine which helps link in with my work and I feel my images will look similar to the images which are in the magazine. My aim is to show skateboarding as a urban sport (in the background) within the UK which it is so one of my final images is going to be set in an abandoned warehouse where I skate with my mates and capture a skater in mid air using flash to light it up.
