This is my transformative photo which changed the way I viewed photography because I understood that the way I took the photo made all the difference and it the quality of the photo does not depend only on the object. From far away these leaves looked drab and lifeless, but when I took a close-up they looked more alive and interesting due to the lighting making the leaves more animate and bright.
5. The shape is the outline of a object in 2d whereas form also accouts for the outline of the object but it also includes depth and feel of it.The shape of the piece of bark is clearly shown as the bark is flat against the ground. The leaves also show shape but also depth making the photo an example of form. Examples are shown in my blog in the links below.
6. A pattern may include objects that are similar but may have characteristics that are different. Repetition is showing the exact same object over and over again with now variety in the objects. For repetition I used benches that looked exactly the same and were lined up. I then took a picture of the repetition of the same design and color of benches. For pattern I used an artwork I made with the same design but with different colors and arranged them in a pattern. Examples from my blog are shown below.
8. Last Three Projects
My best project was the Commercial where my group and I took pictures that would probably appear in pantene ads. This project changed my attitude towards pictures taken for ads because I learned it took a lot of time and effort to create such images. I used to believe taking the pictures was easy and then it could be photo-shopped in a few minutes but in a video I watched which showed the making of car ads showed the hard work the cameraman, model, and photo editor. I learned to appreciate the effort behind the making of ads and now whenever I see one I understand the hard work that is behind the picture in the ad.
