Photography 4 Contact Sheet/Print Assignment

    The strongest technical aspect of my work would be my print because its the image on the large piece of paper and it shows the image clearly. It contains black, white and gray. The strongest technical aspect that can be improved on is maybe making the print a little lighter.

    The easiest thing about this art activity was taking the pictures for the assignment. It was the easiest because we could be creative with taking the pictures and you could do whatever you wanted to if it looked interesting. The most difficult thing about this art activity was making the test strips and seeing what f stop to put it on.

   I demonstrated the objective for this project by making the test strips, contact sheets and the print of the negative that came out the best. If I could do this art activity again I would change the border around the image to make there be less white and more of the image itself.

Photography 4 Coffee Camera


    The strongest technical aspect of my work is the 5x7 image because it has black gray and white in it. The picture is of Brian standing in front of a brick building. The picture was taken from a coffee camera which we had to make. The technical aspect that can be worked on is the test strip because the test strip fell a little.

   The easiest thing about this art activity was making the images in the coffee camera. The most difficult thing about this art activity was trying to position the paper to make sure it got the whole body. Also making sure that no light got exposed to the paper before it got put in the camera.

   I demonstrated the objective by having gray, white and black in the coffee camera pictures and knowing how long to have light shine on the image. If I could do something over again I would change the angle of the pictures and make sure they are positioned in the right place.

Photography 4 Assignment 5


   The strongest technical aspect of my work would be the symmetry photogram. Its the strongest because it is the photogram that came out the most clear and is the best represents the three values that we have been working with; Black, gray, white. The technical aspect that can be most improved on is the landscape photogram because it could've  came out a lot better. It got a little messed up from the transition from the class room to the dark room. 

   The easiest thing about this art activity was finding the magazine picture to make the magazine photogram. It was the easiest just because you just had to find an image that had pictures on both sides. The most difficult part was moving the landscape into the dark room my image got messed up and moved around.1

   I demonstrated the objective by having black, gray, and white in my photograms. Black means there was a high exposure to light. White means no exposure of light to the photogram. And gray means that there was a little light that was exposed to the photogram. If I did this art activity again I would change the landscape picture because it got moved around.

Photography 4 Assignment 4


    The strongest aspect of my work is the polaroid placement. Its the strongest aspect because thats what you see when you look at the picture that is the main focus. The  technical aspect of my work that can be improved on is the background color and maybe use a filter over it or even position the polaroids differently so you can see more of the back.

   The easiest thing about this art activity was making the background for this project. It was easy because I could pick the colors that I wanted and make it however I wanted. The most difficult thing about this art activity is placing the polaroids to where it would look good and compliment the picture and the other polaroids.

   I demonstrated the objective in this art activity by placing the polaroids in different places and making it look as if there was polaroids thrown down on a table and making an image. I feel as if I accomplished the objective for this project. If I did this project again then I would change the background and the colors in it.

Photography 4 Assignment 3


 The strongest aspect of my work is getting all of the freckles and blemishes away. I think its the strongest aspect because before her face had so many freckles before and now she has a clean smooth face. The technical aspect of my work that can be improved on is I could of used a different color for the eye shadow to compliment the lip color but instead I kept it a pink color to match the lips.

  The easiest thing about this art activity was painting the lips. It was easy because I just had to pick a color and paint it on then use the hue filter to make it blend in to look like lipstick. The difficult thing about this art activity was getting rid of all the freckles and blemishes and smoothing her face out.

  I demonstrated this art activity by using the healing tool to get rid of blemishes and freckles and any bad parts on her face. If I could do this art activity again I would change the color of the lips i painted. I might use a darker purple for the lips or even another shade of pink.
