Unit 14 Evidence of my photoshoot

1. Evidence of my photoshoot
For my location of my
photoshoot I have used Alis’
house and his garden to shoot
in because it will be the
most suitable location for me
and my model to be during the
day of the photoshoot, if I
were to choose another
location I would choose to
use the studio shooting room
in photography in the art
block.
For a start I
told my model to how I wanted him to dress
himself and then how to act and what I expect him
to look like and what to do with his hands etc…
In the clothing sense I wanted him to be wearing
something casual yet fashionable so it doesn’t
look just lazy.
As I got to the set location of the photoshoot
and I took the pictures I ensured that I found
bits of areas that would look nice for the camera
and lighting spots where my model would look the
best as the sun would be shining on him directly.
Next I made sure that my camera was adjusted to
the proper exposure, shutter speed and aperture to ensure the
best quality picture came out, I used a tri-pod to make sure
that there was no blurriness in the pictures despite the high
shutter speed.
After this I told my model to stay still
and look directly in the camera for some
shots and for other shots I wanted him
to look into the distance, I also told
him to have a monotone expression on his
face as at the time I did’nt know if I
were to make the album in a good or bad
tone or both so the best option would be
to go monotone and I could adjust it
later in post-production if needed.

2. Evidence of my photoshoot
I started taking a few images to see
if I liked the outcome of them and
adjusted my model to how I wanted
him to stand and pose. This image
was ok but I wanted to try out a few
more angles to see if I could get
more detail out so that it would be
easier when I go to draw over it.
In this image I told my model to
look off in the distance but I
thought that this images exposure
was way too dark to use and
wanted to brighten it so that I
could see every detail in his
skin.
As we can see in this image I’ve come a
little bit closer again to get as much
detail in the skin and the hair as
possible so that it’s easier for me to
draw on as I can see individual strands
as the camera quality is really good. I
didn’t use this image because it was way
too bright so I turn down the exposure
on this for the next picture.
This is a full body picture of my
model because I wanted to do
something with the body instead of
just the upper side as it would be
awkward implementing just the top
side whereas the whole body would
fit better.
