Last week we spent looking at focal length
on Monday which I enjoyed. I used a18-55mm, 70-200, 300mm lenses and we had to
test out out the different light meterings which helped us to tell the
difference between apertures, sharpness, colour. There was a big difference
between each and it helped open my eyes into buying other lenses. We also looked into environmental portraits
which is a portrait shot within an environment which tells you more about the
model and tells a story. We also started our new assignment which is based
around doing a shoot on a model who meets the equality and diversity act which
means we use someone who has something which makes them different. We also
looked at unique selling point which is something a photographers do within there
work which makes them different and people with become familiar to. We looked
into model release forms. They are forms which the model you use signs so they
cant sue you or stop you from using them. I am going to start using them in my
next shoots. We looked into equipment which we could use on an environmental portrait.
Basically we would take a number of different lenses with different focal
lengths, apertures. Tripods for the camera and a tripod for flash if sing off
camera flash. Reflecters, sd cards and anything you think you would need to
achieve the final images. I was looking into my favourite areas of photography
which was sports, landscapes and portraits. I was looking into new skills I could
use within them areas.
