Personal shoot 5- Work Diary

This photograph was taken for my personal project 'Close ups' and the theme of this shoot was sweets. I chose the organisation of this photograph to be random because I felt it would make the photograph look more vibrant and fun. The idea of editing this photograph as black and white and then using the eraser tool to bring back selective colours was because I felt that this would show my creative skills better and not show exaggerated amount of colour. . Furthermore I feel that this photograph was taken very well as the boldness of the sweets have been emphasised by the close up technique. However to improve on this photograph I should of put more of a selection of sweets in the photograph to allow more colours to be shown.

This photograph was taken for my personal project 'Close ups' as well and shows the theme of sweets. I really like this photograph because it allows the formal element of texture to be shown very clear. This is because the  fizzy texture is hilighted and makes this photograph very eye catching to look at. In addition the vibrant colours of these sweets also stand out as the close up technique allows them to be seen much brighter therefore grabbing the viewers attention easier. I really like how the sweets are taken in a random order as it makes this photograph look more relastic and fun. If I would improve on anything in this photograph I would of taken this photograph a lot more closer as I feel this would enhance the appearance of the sweets much better.

If I would go back to this shoot I would take more photographs of individual sweets as this will allow no distractions to them and to focus on the boldness of them. I would also take more photographs in general to give me a more wider variety of choice to edit.

The result of this shoot was influenced from the previous shoot of the human eye. This is because I stated in my own work diary that I could use food to add vibrant colors to the human features. However this shoot I was unable to get a model in as they had other commitments. Therefore to develop my idea I photographed food to see if the outcome of close up photograph of foods would produce a very bright and vibrant photograph. The reason I chose sweets was because they contain very sugary textures which make a very fun and tasty photograph.
