1. Task 5
Jacob Hargrave

2. Images sourced from books:

3. Advantages of sourcing images this way:
One thing that can be good about books Is that you get the image in front of you
and also the images are often a bit more unique and this is because books have
been around for a long time where as the internet had not been. This makes
some of the older books have some images that are not on the internet. As well
as this the way books credit the photographer makes it so you can easily look
up the photographer and this makes it easy to buy there work if you like it.
Disadvantages of sourcing images this way:
the disadvantages of doing this include the low quality of the images and also
that the images can also fade over time and this further reduces the quality of
the image. As some books are old the images can be in black and white and
this can make the images unclear.
As some books are old the images can be ripped or damaged in some other
way.

4. Images sourced from google images:

5. Advantages of sourcing images this way:
The images are easy to get and also free this makes it the way that most people
get there images. As well as being free there is a huge range of images and
also the images are often accurate and you can easily find what you are looking
for most of the time. There are also a lot of filters so you can get images that
are recent or are big in size. This also makes the time taken to find an image
less. Google also has safe search and this makes it so that it is safe for children
to use as well. It is fast to get the images.
Disadvantages of sourcing images this way:
The first disadvantage is that the images are often small and also not very high
quality when you try to expand them. This makes it hard to use a lot of the
images when you have found them. Some of the images on the site are not
copyright free and this makes it hard to use them in things like logos or on the
web. Another disadvantage is that a lot of the images will be used a lot. This
means that the images will be seen a lot on other work. Another disadvantage
of this is some of the images have water marks that can be hard to get rid of.
This can be because you need to pay for the image or that the photographer
wants to get credit for the image but it does not look very good in someone's
work

6. Images sourced from stock image library:

7. Advantages of sourcing images this way:
the advantages are that there are a huge amount of images and they are in
good quality and often in large sizes. The next advantage is that you get the
copyright as soon as you buy the image and this makes it so you can use it for
anything. This makes it so you can be confident that you cant be punished for
using the images. As well as this it is very fast.
Disadvantages of sourcing images this way:
the first disadvantage is that the images are not free and can often be quite
expensive if you need to buy a few images although a single image can be a
good price. As well as this is can be hard to find the exact image your looking
for as if you are paying you want to be sure your getting the correct image and
can take a while finding the image. Another disadvantage is that some of the
images have licence restrictions. The images are also ment for a general
audience and this can make then unspecific.

8. Images sourced from your own existing images:

9. Advantages of sourcing images this way:
The advantages of this can be that you are the only one with the images and it
is unique to your work. As well as this it can be cheaper if you have the
equipment. Another good thing with taking the photos yourself can be that the
image you want can be taken and you don’t have to make do with an image that
might be a bit off.
Disadvantages of sourcing images this way:
my first disadvantage is that the images can take a lot of time to take and then
process. As well as this when you have finished the images you don’t get the
professional look you might get from getting the image from a different source.
As well as this you might also not be able to take the images you want without
travel witch can be expensive and it may be cheaper to just buy the image.

10. Processing
Images

11. Original image:

12. Cropped image:

13. Scaled images:
A4
A5
A6

14. Resolution image:
300dpi for print
72dpi for web

15. Advantages of different resolutions:
One of the advantages of it are that you can get different quality and size
images to transport ad upload them faster them easily. This also makes it faster
to load and also faster to download. A good thing with 300ppi is that it is good
for printing photos and also not to big for the files to not open/take a long time to
open.
Disadvantages of different resolutions:
The main disadvantages are the file size and if you have a 300ppi file it can be
very big. This is not a problem with 72ppi files but you lose the quality if this is
the case. This can also be an issue with getting images of the internet as they
are most likely going to be 72ppi and therefor when you expend them there
might be a pixelated image left.

16. Manipulated image with appropriate caption:

17. Explain the changes you made to the image and explain why you made
those changes:
What I did the the image was to change the filter to
ink outlines and then I changed the colours, Hue,
and then I added a lot of blues and some reds at
the end. I made a lot of changes but the filter
made it look a lot different and this was the main
change. As well as changing the colours I also
changed the brightness to make it darker. This
made it so that the image had like a dark border
around it in the corners.
