Semester 1 Personal ReflectionToday you will be writing about your own work that you have made in this class.
Take some time to think about the different projects you have completed so far in class. You will pick one project that you responded to, and one project that you did not respond to. Then, you will write about your experience. Be sure to include this information in your writing:
Next, pick your least favorite image that you have created this year, and write at least 1 paragraph analyzing the image. Describe specifics, form, and content. Finally, evaluate the image. Be sure to describe which project you shot the image for. Your analyses must be a minimum of 4 paragraphs, with 5 sentences minimum per paragraph. Be sure to post your analysis as a comment to the correct class period blog post. Your analyses are due by MIDNIGHT tonight, 1/7/22.

My favorite project that I worked on was the bug eye, bird eye, frame, and rule of thirds. As I had great succession in taking my photos from all of the different angles you threw at us. When it came to the rule of thirds I had trouble thinking what I should do until I saw the blocks of different images. As I was taking a picture of a silver watch I picked some white sides and since the dial was black I chose some black sides.

The project I liked the most was Self-Portrait. I enjoyed this project because it was fun doing my alter ego and coming up with ideas for my alter ego. I think this made me a better photographer because I got to experiment with flash and exposure and shutter speeds. It was also really fun because I was running around trying to take a picture of myself with a timer. I think this helped me become a better artist because the way I executed the alter ego images were better than I expected and ended up looking really good and I am really proud of myself. I learned lots of new skills like shutter speed because I couldn't figure out why it was taking pictures so slow and came out blurry turn out it was just my shutter speed.

The project that I most responded to was the Dreams. For me it was the easiest project and the one that I got the most creative on. I also did not procrastinate on completing the project so it made shooting the photos a lot easier. I felt like it was really easy to find things to photograph and make them look dreamy. Some of my favorite parts of the project was when I taped a plush bird to my window to take a photo of it. Another part of this project that I enjoyed is when I took a picture of the drinks in the cafe through the window. When I was taking them I didn’t think they would turn out well, but that photo ended up being one of my finals. It helped me learn that any object that is photographed well can look like a good photo.

My favorite project was the dream project. The morning fog created a perfect space to take pictures, and the open nature of the project allowed me to experiment with the idea of liminal spaces. The stark and unfriendly buildings creeping back into the fog were extremely fun to capture. I learned that blowing hot air onto the lens of my camera was a terrible idea, but it momentarily made the image look better. I was able to take around 250 decent images in the span of thirty minutes, which was an added bonus. I think that the images which I took in this project were by far my favorites.

The project that I responded to the most was the Dream project. It allowed me to use nature in order to create a dreamlike aesthetic. I also used my knowledge on the basic functions of my camera, ISO, aperture, and F stop, to create the perfect lighting. There were two days where there was fog, which allowed me to easily get 50 pictures. My favorite picture was the one where I used my sister to make it seem like she was about to blow out a birthday candle. I was able to turn off the light and use a ring light to provide the perfect lighting. The background was black and all you could see was my sister’s red lips and the green and white birthday candle. I got very creative, and I would say I put more effort into making sure my pictures were interesting. This project changed the way I thought of the technical parts of photography. I realized that having the best lighting and quality was dependent on the ISO, F stop, and aperture.

The project that resonates with me the most and has stuck with me the most through this semester would have to be Project three Self Portrait. I feel like this was a project that I was most proud of and could express my personal similarities or differences in the “scenes” I was creating. My creative side was liberated even though I was working in the same room that I had done my previous projects in. Knowing that my body in the image was the main requirement for the project I had free rein on how to communicate the emotions I wanted to convey. Comments are closed.
