Ted VanCLeave

Ive recently researched into VanCleave's work as it fits in nicely with my photography project,  I like how he photographs ojects, (in this series buildings) with the sky/ plain background behind it filling most of the image. These are the research pages I have done on his work:

I then went out and took some images of my own in this kid of style:

I really like some of these images, so I took the one I liked the most on Photoshop Elements and editied them in the same as VanCleave, I also editied a few images in a different style:

Stop Motion Practise

For my graphics project 'Motion Graphics' I have to make a piece of graphics using After Effects for the BBC to be displayed on the big screen in Derby. I plan on using a mixture different types of motion graphics. This was a practise run of Stop Motion, I thought it worked well, and will be using this video in my final piece of work for this project.

Dennis Morris 'Live Talk'

I attended a Dennis Morris talk at Burton Libary, on the 13th of October 2010. I found the talk very interesting as he told the stories of his journeys becoming, and being a photographer. It inspired me as one day i'd like to have my own interesting, funny stories to tell people.

I liked his photographs he took of Bob Marley, I thought they were original, and very interesting to look at as I wasn't aound when Bob Marley was alive so it gave me insight on what sort of a performer and person he was. I found he was very fun, random and energetic. 

Dennis Quotes:

"If you want to be a photographer, you have to go to the roots of photography and learn from the greats"

"The camera doesn't make the picture, its just a tool"

"Most people look but don't see"

As you can see here it shows him as a fun, and happy person to be around. 

My Final AS Pieces Of Graphic Work.

These are my final pieces of work I handed in for my AS year in Graphic Design.

 

This is some of my artist research I have done on the Photographer 'Bill Henson' I really enjoyed looking at his work as the brightly coloured skies in some of his images inspried me to go out and take some of my own images of the skies, to try and capture there true colour, and the different colours they create at different times of the day.

This is an image I took after researching a photographer called 'Hannah Starkey', I was infulenced by her long exposure images she took, where the light bursts through windows to reveal what was going on, on the other side. So I took a few images where light bursts through windows and this image was my favourite.

These are three of Hannah Starkey's images that inspired me to go and take some of my own:
