Blog post 7 - 3.2

i have edited a series of 3 photos that i have taken photos of.In the first series i edited the level and tone of the photo to make it look darker and bring out more of the saturation in a photo.In the second one i edited a girl on trains tracks and had palm trees in the back i edited the photo using double exposure effect editing to pretty much morphe the two photos together.In the very last series of photos i have edited the levels and tone of the my lounge and my Marae in the background and have done this to bring out the colour of my marae more and saturate the image,I have also used the double exposure effect editing on the image to create the concept of being "Home"

This photography art piece by Michael Kenna sketched above focal point is the wooden stand in the middle of  the area as it is the only thing we can actually focus on.The wooden stand leading lines are photographed at a perfect angle where we can see that as the floor meets the sky there is a colour change.Between this split there is a line which lines up exactly with the stand.the use of colour in this art piece is very dark mostly grey white and black which gives the picture a "lonely" of vibe since the wooden piece stands alone.space and balance in this photo is really good as thee sky and floor are the same size just different colour.The wooden piece is also to the right rather than being in the middle oh the photograph

This photograph by Edith Amituanai sketched above we see the focal point as the couch,There is also another focal point for me personally that stands out which i think are the photo frames above the couch.The photo has been framed in the middle to draw the viewers eyes towards the couches and the photos above.the use of colour in this photo is very plain and limited and gives an old Polynesian home feel to it.There are no uses of repetitive elements in this photo apart.from the two identical photo frames on either side of the middle bigger picture.Everything in this photo has a equal visual weight with the couch being exactly in the middle.However the photos are more to the right and the space of the curtains take up more of the right side making the left side more empty.

This photo by William Eggleston sketched above we see that the focal point is the glass.The framing devices for this photo is that it is in the front of an airplane window and sits in direct spotlight.The glass is placed just at the edge of the tray table makes for  the rest of the background to be framed in the photo easier.The use of colour in this photo is very plain.However the glass of liquid is bright and vibrant and has a shadow which kind of steals the show and pops out as the "focal point"There are no use of repetitive elements. Asymmetrical space and balance is used in this photo

these are a couple of contact sheets that have made from photos i have taken throughout this past term,My theme being documetry "day in the life" style.in most of these photos my model is mostly framed in outdoor enviroments,My goal is thati wanted to mostly have my modell in differret enviroments.Some techniques that i used were depth of feild in the photographs where the boy has a mask on and his face is blurred and i had used this technique when i had zoomed in on a male model from a distance in secret doing his schoolwork.I also has used Something that is working well is finding different "day in the life" enviroments for my model to be photographed in and working with differen types of angles and shoots in these particular enviroments.Something that i think i can do better next time is properly planning where and what im taking photos of so that i can get a proper series of photos and have them being properly framed.I will also be trying to use different techniques as i havent really explored that area too much yet in my photography.

Monday 22nd Feb p2 open: Photo pea learn Monday 28th Feb p2 open: Photo pea learn Make some notes about what the move tool does, and how to perate it.  Open this file on photopea- you may need to download it to do this, you will need to open it FROM photopea. Use the move tool to selectively move one or two layers/masks and screenshot each result.	Answers here in your own words please This is a basic tool for moving layers and their parts,by default it will move all layers in the (layers panel) if you select just the mask of the layer and that mask is not in the main content,the move tool will move the mask only.When the move tool is active,you can move objects with the cursor.the move tool has an auto select feature which can be enabled on the menu,photopea will detect the closest layer under your cursor
Tuesday  p1 Scan your photograms from last week and open them. Open Photopea learn here. There is a typo in this section which will make the first paragraph hard to initially read. “at regular layers” should be “on regular layers”.  Find a definition of the word ‘pixels’ from google and write it into your own words. It is the building block you will need to understand in digital photography. Open a photo file and have a play with these selection tools.  Screenshot your work and add it to this document	Screenshot of your proof sheet here Word pixels is the small unit of a digital image or graphic that can be displayed and represented on a digital display device
Wednesday  p2 Go back to yesterday’s do now work. Select a bunch of pixels in a photo and document the following carefully: Invert a selection Expand a selection Contract a selection (make it smaller) Feather a selection	Screenshot of your PROCESS here. This means stopping and screenshotting every few seconds. At least four screen shots please. (mac screen shot is shift command 4)

Week six

Do Now’s for Senior photography working through Photopea and Canva - basics

Monday p2 open: Photo pea learn Make some notes about what masks are; How many vector masks can each layer have? How many raster  masks can each layer have? There are definitions for raster and vector masks within this source. Write these definitions in your own words	Answers here in your own words please Mask are building blocks for our own document,sometimes we need to hide a part of a layer (so it is not shown in the result) without deleting the actual pixel data, vector masks can have at least one mask.The raster mask also has at least one mask. The raster mask is a grayscale image that has pixels each tool can be applied to a a regular layer (brush,eraser,smudge,fill) can also be applied to the raster mask.the vector mask  consist of vector shapes that are made of bezier curves,the vector shapes are internally converted to a grayscale image and applied to the layer automatically
Tuesday  p1 Open this file or one of your own from last week with the photocopies on photopea- you may need to download it to do this, you will need to open it FROM photopea. Add a raster mask to a layer. Mess with it and screenshot the result (does not have to be a whole lot of work, just enough to show you have done something) Screen shot your work and add it to this document	Screenshot of your proof sheet here
Wednesday  p2 Choose one photo from the selection here and draw a thumbnail sketch of it, locating the following: Focal point Leading lines Rule of thirds and why that matters	The focal point is something that catches the bulk of the attention in the photo the focal point here it is the men standing around with concern,and also the filter on the photo makes it look vintage which drags out attention to the men.The leading lines are something that draws the viewer to a specific point of the picture here it is the man in the middle,as he is bang in the middle of all these men.the rule of three here is important in the photo is important because it's the composition guideline for the picture.that places the subject of the photo in the left right or third,leaving the other two thirds open.the most appealing parts of the photos are placed along these lines
