Collections
I have chosen collections to do with photography. I do like collecting things so thats why I have chosen 'collections'. We had to make a pinterest board of what things we have found on there. And pictures to show what it is.
I have different collections at home of different things like pens, makeup brushes all sorts of different things I want to do a experiment in front of the camera of them being turn upside down in different positions. because I'm doing 'collections'. I want the most I can do with different stuff. collections is what something is built up and theres more than one thing. And there all the same but different patterns , stuff on the front or anything. I have screen shot of on my pinterest.
My best picture of Collections.
The picture I have is from Pinterest and the pencils are made from wood, can be recycled. This would be good for the environment. The pencils in the picture looks like it would be easy to snap. And I was actually looking for pictures of pencils that are colourful. And it really bright. I do find a lot of pencils that are really colourful and I find it in the images. on any website where I type in 'colourful pencils'. But I typed it in on Pinterest. And it didn't come up but it this one come up with a recycling pencils which would be good for the environment. And will not be bad for the environment. It would be really easy to recycle and wouldn't be really expensive to buy from shops. I have never seen pencils like this with good graphics of it. Joint on top of each other, some of the pencils are dark and so are light due to what type of wood they have cut it from . I would think that they have used the wood from trees, logs and sticks. And made it into a pencil.
I chosen this because its different never seen a pencil like this with good graphics of it, people could tell its from wood because the end of the pencil which looks like loads of wood has came off. To make it look better than it actually is. The pencils are really sharp. And can be reusable. The only odd pencil is the one coming from the left going onwards to the right 4th one on the left is where a really white one. I like it because it is different has different shades of the pencils. |

These pictures are of collections that I had found on Pinterest. My favourite one is the last one first row because I like the colour and it looks like it is to do with a beach. When people and little children go when its hot. Basically all of the pictures are being repeated by keep taking photos and it is expanding bigger. I like the colour because it is a calm and nice blue. It's bright and a nice colour. All of the other pictures like the second one looks like that is to do with recycling and being environment friendly to the environment by recycling bottles so bottles like this when they are finished can be reused over and over again. The colour green goes with recycling as well and green bottles are also popular with it. In the photo it looks like there is a bottle where you can feel up that bottle with petrol when a car is broken down which is used in the photo. The artist collected and saved loads of bottles and beach gear and sea shells to take a lot of photos of them building up to a one big photo. As you can see the artist must of taken a long time to save and collection things like this. I tried to look for more photos by this artist but there wasn't anymore that i could find. To me this looks like anything barry founds or sees that would be good to take picture of and collect he would keep them. And find something different anything that is to do with rocks. or anything that is light and easy and will stick out more of the crowd.
I like the medication container because its different and something to do with it has a picture behind why they have taken a photo of it or why they have done it, I like the football picture mostly because if you look at it there is a ball inside the photo looks like there is a ball smiling back at you. Which is not made like that all photos if you stare at it long will have something that will show up on in the photo.
the artist has organised the objects before he had laid them down and took photos. Most of them there are parallel, over lapped and shaped in different directions instead of keeping in every photo of where it is all laid out straight.

Olivia Parker
Olivia parker graduated in Wellesley college in 1963. These are more jewellery I have found on pintrest. she began her career as a painter. She paints in a studio. And she enjoys painting and creating collections .As you can see most of her pictures have an effect and different angles.
My Photography
I took photos of my own jewellery i took with a camera that has a good specific lens to zoom up to close stuff. I bring in stuff like bracelet , necklace , earrings. to my photography work. I also had cases to go with the jewellery to hold the jewellery inside. I like the Chinese pattern on the cover. I also had a see through bag which when taking a picture you can see the bracelets inside the bag. I start to take the jewellery out the bag and then i start to order them out in different positions like all of the bracelets are straight. With rings next to them. And also the rings I bundle them al together like it ain't ordered and then I lay it all out in order to make it neater. Which is to do with 'collections'. I had loads of bracelets and bangles. I tried to do a square box and order it inside the box. I didn't have a lot of rings so i had to mix things with it so the photograph doesn't look empty. When i take a long view facing down i had to stand on a chair for me to go higher and get the camera in focus with the jewellery. I also ordered to bags starting from 1 to 4 all together in different angles and sizes. which isn't meant to look right. Most of my bracelet was dark and black. And some of the rings had some colours like pink and silver.
I have collected loads of bracelets for ages I do like jewellery most of these I have bought myself or have had them as a gift. My favourite one is the Jamaican bracelet with herbs on it. And I also like the camera how i took the photo because it is zoomed up nicely with good techniques to do it. It is really colourful as well with all the bracelets i bring in to mix them up and take pictures and different angles all together.
Photoshop
I used photoshop wit help by my teacher how to add triangles to my work of the picture I took when i bring in my jewellery for a day. I invert the the triangles the inside only to make it change a different colour to the actual background. I decided to that because i wanted the whole triangle to stand out than any others. Inside the triangle I edit them to make the inside move to a different place. I like the 3rd one because the background is in black and white and the triangles is inverted still with a bright colour added to the colourful bracelet. What i like about the picture on the 3rd one is the background is dark and the triangles isn't.
I used photoshop to create different triangles and got help at the same time with different effects on the background the big one above is my favorite because of the colour of the background. And the look of everything the background of the picture is made to look old but as you can see the right hand of the corner is normal and as it changes colour it gets old. I like this because I haven't seen this type of photo like this before. I find this piece really hard to do with all the buttons that I would need to click and twist and turn to make it right for my photo. It is really hard for me to remember all of the stuff to make the photo like this. I do think photo shop is good to change stuff like photographs and one my favorite part of the picture is the triangles I like them because of the effect that is inside the triangle it stands out more and it changes my colour of my jewellery. And I've moved them into different positions it isn't non-identical. because I moved them so it isn't the same as the whole picture.
This photo is 'bracelets'. So the effects has changed in the middle bit. The reason why I have put triangles in the picture is because 'bracelets'. Are round and circle I thought of putting triangles in the photo to make it stand out more. The other photos above are the others one I took but changed some things with the photoshop tools like background and different shapes in different places.

Olivia Parker
I see old rusty chains with a horse thats is a shadow on the wall. I also see a picture on the right hand side old picture of an earth and in the middle and there was a sun look like it's being swapped. This photograph is old , rusty , out of fashion. Dark , black , dim , evil , depressing , calm. A horse in the middle a shadow reflected off the wall and sun reflecting on it. Seems calm for a chid . It looks like an abstract image. It looks like It's on a book of reflecting. I recognise the horse as the shadow. That ripped paper looks like a state. I've sen all of this before. Nothing seems new I think during the making i think they used a light-box. Or an light to get reflection of an horse to reflect on the wall. I find it very eye-catchy. I think someone made this to make someone happy. This photograph reminds me off a little baby who likes horses. But i do know there is a story behind it. It looks like a book on the background. Looks old and someone spilt tea on the paper. shapes looks old. Tones makes the photo look old the patterns makes the picture stand out more. It was taken with a camera close up. It is similar to real life stuff. Olivia parker probably used a light box. The horses interests me mostly. And the effect stands out more. The horse looks like it is spring up like as rocket and there is a picture on the right hand corner of two earths. The earth because I wouldn't know why there would be a space thing in this picture. I would ask her what is the horse doing in the middle and what does it relate to? I wouldn't know what the call the title because i don't think i could actually come up with as good title for the piece . I think someone has had a dream and they wanted to take a picture to describe it. I would believe a young girl or boy has had a dream and wanted her to dream to come true. If I was in the photograph I would describe it as sunny , dark , shadow , cold , steamy. I think olivia made this photograph to show that techniques you can use by using a camera or a light box. To reflect on a book. I think it would be really old and it would make me think back in the old days. Where they have a old rusty chain. And something to do with a space or a nurse. Olivia made the photograph to look old but nice at the same time . I think some people would think that in the photograph Olivia should of added something more in the photograph like a bit more colour because to me it looks dark and depressing. it probably have a story behind it but don't know what it is. I would create something that is a lot of colourful. that is related to my background I don't really know why Olivia exactly made this photograph but I do know she probably made us think what it the story behind the photograph.
Pictures
Project 1
The 'collection' pictures I took was outside of the building on the course. And I used a camera to take picture of as book with a mirror, book, perfume, maths object. these objects relates to 'Olivia Parker'. And Olivia has used these type of stuff on her pictures and photographs. I don't think there is a reason why she does it but I know it is to do with collections. And Olivia parker is really good at taking pictures to do with collections. During the making I took a couple of pictures Of a mirror because that is related to collections. I tried to make mine as smiliar as Olivia has done. I took pictures outside on as bench. with a camera I laid everything out in order. And when I tried to go and take a picture some of my body was init. The sun was out and it was reflecting shadows on to the book. I flipped some of the pages over to change the background of the book. To make it look different. And I ordered them in different angles in different positions. The lighting of the sun was great because I could go out and take pictures of the shadow. I think the shadow stands out me than the objects because the shadow is dark black and you can't tell what the colour was in the picture. The camera had a setting on black and white.
Project 2
Collections;
I have created a load of pieces on the floor to do with collections and used a lot of paper and pictures and frames. This might not look like a collection but it is because theres things that repeats itself. And there is a badge 4 of them that is to do with collection. Most of the paper in the photo is old and ripped out of the book. And theres paper over lapping a lot. And books open I changed over after I took a couple of pictures I switched around and took a picture upside down. What i like about it is that there is a frame around another small frame inside. And there is paper around everywhere above and below. Pictures are meant to be old. What I like about it it doesn't look like a collection but it is a collection because there is a lot of papers and books. I also took a picture of objects on a table with a white background and with animals and dinosaurs. It shows shadows in different angles. Which is a collection. The animals are neatly laid out nicely, And the frames and books and paper looks like its a wallpaper. Camera's look really old fashioned back in the 90's. It was in order from old fashioned to newest. What I like about it gets old to new and new to old. Shows you the oldest one which is with an old frame. What I like about it I seconded it all bit by bit. And I didn't take a big picture all in one go. It looks like a big collection that has been collected over the years and years. All the newest cameras that has came out like every year. Because new one comes out and camera is changed differently with colour or out colour. With the animals I tried to get a shadow and i couldn't get it because the sun wasn't shining bright enough for me to take a picture so I got down and try to get the best angle I could get to see the shadow from the animals. And I moved the camera and done a long shot.

Project 3
I took pictures of toys which is animals. which i re took these photos because the pictures above have a dark shade on it. And i didn't the brightness to be really dark. I took pictures of animal toys from biggest to smallest because biggest is better first than smaller. I took a picture of light shade with a shadow. I used a canon lens to zoom in and get the focus right so the camera can see the shadow of the toys. I lined all of them up biggest to smallest, I took a picture one each and they was taken one by one. Because I do one to show the focus of the toy animal. I put the focus of the lens in focus so you can see what is in focus and what isn't in focus. Mostly the eyes and the head is mostly important than the body because the head stands out more than the body. I also made the lens go blurry to show what happens when it is in focus and out focus. Blurry vision isn't good because nothing is in focus you can't see it properly. And it wouldn't be worth taking a picture. Blurry vision should really be taken on holidays. My favorite picture is the lion I like that one because it sits right in front of the camera. And I think I have put the lens in focus right. Because the face stands out more the face looks really cute as well than the picture actually taken. The lion one is my best picture i took and i think others would think that as well because of the colour. I had to go in to 'i photo' to edit the pictures because they wasn't bright enough. i had to press brightness and colour. to make it brighter. when i take pictures on the 'canon' camera in the light it stays bright. But when uploading it on the laptop it would go dark for some reason which i didn't know why it happened.
I used 'i photo' to open a document and i pressed 'Lighten' to make the back round lighter except the actual animal. Lighten makes everything bright instead of the whole picture. And 'cooler' just brightens everything up a bit. But when your pressing it it makes the screen go a little blue but not white.
|
These pictures I highlighted and made them brighter. because it wasn't bright enough. So I edited it even more to make all the pictures brighter. I am going to mount all of this pictures on a white back round. In one line. I tested it outside the see if the border around the pictures is the right size before me sticking them on the mounting cardboard. I then use a glueing spray. Have to use it quite close. The quality doesn't look good on on the border because you can see the scratches and you can tell whats in focus and what ain't in focus. The border is in one line altogether. I also done my other work to do with my jewellery and used photoshop to create the work on it. I put the pictures in order to biggest to smallest. And my teacher tok pictures of everyone holding our borders. What I found difficult to do is me trying to get the animals in focus and the face in focus first. First time I tried it was blury and I could not get it in focus properly and after while me playing around with the lense and me taking pictures I got the hang of it and i took good pictures with the camera. My best picture is the seal or the lion I like them because behind the back round its blury and the animals isnt. When that happens it means the back round doesn't meant to stick out out its meant to be the animals. Depends what it is,
Here are pictures I got from a website. The pictures was on the one in the exam I done. And before some of them I didn't put them on a board and a picture was taken, The boards are A3 and big enough to hold in your hand. The pictures had to be taken so you know what you have done. I like the first one because that one looks old but new at the same time you can actually tell i'm in the picture because you can see the reflection of me when I was taking pictures of the object. I like it because it has an old model. In my picture. And the reflection is good as well. The pictures are all mine and what I should of done to improve em is change colour make the disfigured and stuff in photoshop because I think it would look good if it was like that.
