1. Photography & Photographic Practice
Photography Shoot 1
Photographs to be taken
The purpose of this photo shoot is for a music magazine. I will be taking
photos of various college students in casual clothes but using props such as
a guitar, piano and microphones to give them a music look. I aim to do half
of the photographs outside to use the natural light and the environment to
get a good background shot with one of the musicians I the foreground.
Then I will used the photograph studio to take more professional
photographs of the main people who will be displayed on the front cover
and have a plain white background. Then I will compare both sets of
photographs and pick out my top ten choices.
Location of Photo shoot
I will be shooting my photographs in a natural environment outside and in a
professional looking studio.
Date & time of photo shoot
11am on the 4th February
Equipment & Props needed
Casual clothing will be worn by all people in the photo-shoot
I will be using props such as guitars, piano and microphones
Techniques that will be used
I will be using techniques such as depth of field with the background being
blurred and the foreground being crisp and clear. I will need to experiment
with my aperture on manual settings
With the photographs I will be taking outside I will be using leading lines and
rules of third to make a large photograph will lots going on.
2. Place photos of a similar style here
How light quality can be used to help convey the visual message
Outside photographs will use natural light this will make the image look
more spontaneous as the light will constantly be moving. Also the different
locations will change the way the light exposes the photo.
Health and safety considerations
I will have to consider for the outside shots that people are carful with the
places they take a photograph. For example up a tree or any high places.
