Balancebalance is all about the visual weightiness of a composition and not the physical weight. Balance in art can be defined as a sense of equilibrium and is achieved when the visual weight of objects are distributed equally within a composition. MovementMovement shows action and creates a feeling of motion within a composition. it is the principle of good design which gives the artist control over what the viewer sees next. Repetition and RhythmThe use of repetition to create movement occurs when elements which have something in common are repeated regularly or irregularly thereby creating a visual rhythm. Movement also contributes to the overall unity in a piece by creating a relationship between the various components of a work. EmphasisThe principle of emphasis is another important design element. Defining Emphasis Emphasis in art is when the artist gives dominance to or stresses a particular area Simplicitysimplicity is the omitting of all non-essential or unimportant elements and details which don’t really contribute to the essence of the overall composition ContrastDefining Contrast Contrast in art refers to the positioning of opposing components in a work of art. This is principle that is often applied when an artist wants to add visual interest, excitement and drama to an art piece. Proportion proportion is the relationship of two or more elements in a composition and how they compare to one another with respect to size, color, quantity, degree, setting Spacespace refers to the distance or area between, around, above, below, or within shapes and forms found within a composition. Unityunity is the hallmark of every good design. It is the final result when all the design elements work harmoniously together to give the viewer a satisfying sense of belonging and relationship. summary/feedbackI think that this assignment was good to get back in it and to use a camera an use different ways to take a picture an to have an idea of what to take a picture of
The first day I walked into this class I had no background knowledge on taking photos and photoshop. At the start, I struggled with my photo assignments and I would have to take around 70 photos just to come out with a few decent ones. As the trimester went on I kept working on photoshop and became so much better than when I started.
It got to a point where I didn't just take photos of things that looked cool I looked for a meaning in each photo and used my prior knowledge of the class to come out with some good photos. As seen above, the first 4 photos were my good ones compared to the next three. These photos really show my development in the class and my ability to take good photos, when I take my time and use what I learned in class. photo 1 - NatureFor this week, I chose to do nature. Surprisingly, it was one of the hardest weeks, to try and get it to focus on the correct object really took some time. However, I like how they turned out The most important thing I took away from taking photos this week, was the importance of depth of field. It really gave that extra effect on the photo. Another thing I learned was how to gain the best possible focus, with a lot of subjects in your way. photo 2 - animalIn this assignment, I used my dogs as my subject. It was tough getting any action shots because they are not very active, so I decided to go for more of a lazy look on these photos. It was a great experience The most important thing I took away from taking photos this week, was the importance of depth of field. It really gave that extra effect on the photo. Another thing I learned was how to gain the best possible focus, with a lot of subjects in your way. photo 3 - foodI decided on choosing the topic of food since my family literally owns a restaurant. I took these photos while working so I didn't have much time to set up images, get the best angle, or get better looking dishes.f I had to be honest I didn't have enough time to really do any nice photo tricks or try to learn things, but I did think I did very well on the lightingphoto 4 - black and whiteThis assignment I decided to used the Black and White theme. I decided to just take a few random pictures and made them darker on the camera then remove the saturation on PhotoShop. |
