First Photoshoot Proof Sheets

 Proof sheets from my first photoshoot

First Photoshoot (Art Lvl3)

 For art level 3 I want my theme to be based around past vs present, changes throughout the years, or growing old. I want to do one of these themes as I enjoy seeing the difference in time and I find it fascinating. So for my first photo shoot, I decided to take some photos I have of flowers at my house. I took photos of flower buds, blooming flowers, and dead flowers. I thought this would work with one of the themes as it relates to changes and differences. I also did take other photos that don't relate as much to my theme but I was just trying out the different technique. 

I've been working on taking different types of photographs and checking them off on a list. 

I haven't completed the list yet, I'm still working on it. So far I have enjoyed doing the tasks I have completed.

Brainstorm (Theme/brief ideas)

 For level 3 art I have decided to do photography. I have been brainstorming some themes and ideas for what I want my photography to be based on. 

Some themes I have come up with:

Growing old

Where I come from

Past vs Present

Changes throughout the years

Feminism

Environment (how to protect our place)

The main idea I am thinking of doing is either past vs present, growing old, or changes throughout the years. These themes are quite similar but could still work around different things. It was similar to my theme in level 1 art which I really enjoyed doing and wanted to do something similar for my level 3 photography. 

Today in class I also worked on photopea and worked on a basic editing task.

I also played around with changing the colors to warm tones

Panel Two Planning

  

  I have been planning my panel two portfolio board, I will be designing around 10 posters and roughly 6 album covers.  To take inspiration from my artist models I will be using lines, shapes, colours and ombres as these inspirations are what I see most within their artwork. My next steps will be to finish poster designs and finish board one. 

Progress from today:

I have been working on designing a poster.

 

I have used an ombre and a circle with a dark line to reference my artwork towards Shane Hansen. I really like the way he uses lines and colours to create his artwork. 

Finalising my logo design

My brand/business for my design is a music artist. For my design, I will be promoting the vocal singer Ariana Grande. My artist inspiration for my logo design was Shane Hansen. He creates his artwork by using simple lines and shapes. Using colours that relate to what his artwork is about and by using ombre within his artwork. I really wanted to combine these key features into my artwork as I think they will be able to work well with my theme. 

My original chosen design only used the colours black and white. I really like how this design turned out as it related well to my artist model and also my theme. I also combined text into my logo as it helped my logo stand out. One thing my logo lacked was colour. My chosen colour palette had colours such as purples, pinks, greys, black and white. Having it original in just black and white didn't make it stand out. It was a little too boring. I still really liked the design so I decided to add an ombre effect using different purple colours. I also added white lines to create negative space. I think this really helped my logo to stand out and pop.

Art Emulation (Photography)

 In art (photography) we have been playing around with art emulations. My reference was Andre Kertesz, Melancholic Tulip. The proportion of the tulip is different. The bottom half looks as if you are looking at it straight on whereas the top of the vase looks as if you are looking at it from above. To do this I took two photos one from above and one from straight on and combined the images together.

Art Folio Connections (Design)

 

In art (design) we have been looking at different portfolios and talking about the connections between them. In the first part we can see them looking at different logos relating to a movie poster. They have used colours such as blue, black and white on their logos. Under that they have used the word Tiff. They have been using different fonts and played around with connecting the font to the movie design. Using the same blue, black and white colours and font they have used to create a ticket design. They also have used the same idea and added it to a shirt. On the other side they have created posters. They have stuck to the use of colours and fonts to create their poster designs. At the bottom is their main design with a red camera in the middle of the poster. This relates to the red film logo on the other side. They have used colours and fonts to relate each idea to one another.
