Diptych

Catching a Cold

Straight Hair

Dancing Winner

For my Diptych project, it was hard at first to come up with ideas for before and after type of things. A lot of things I thought of I felt were previously used or too typical. I think my first one was my favorite and came out very successfully with my models as Chris and Julianne. The idea of somebody being too close to somebody sick and catching a cold I feel was one of the more creative ones I had. The models acted out their illness very well too!

My second diptych was of Nupur straightening her her. She did a very good job of frizzing up her hair in  the first photo and the second photo showed the results a hair straightener can have.

In my last photograph, I used Marlon who was a fantastic model! He was very into the dancing around in a skirt! The idea of this photograph was to show him dancing in the first picture and receiving an award for his excellence in the second. I had some trouble coming up with props for this photograph though. The only trophies I could find of my own had softball players on them. Also, the skirt was the closest thing to a tutu I could find. I figured by putting a boy in the skirt it would make the skirt stand out more and help show that he is a dancer. I think if I were to do this again I would have had Marlon in tights and found something that better resembled a tutu.

Object Series

Book, Danielle Voelkel

      For my object series I used a book and took pictures of it from different angles and doing different things, whether it was opened or closed, standing or sitting, or someone flipping a page. The object I originally wanted to potray was a softball but there was not much I could do with it besides just sit it there. I had other ideas as well but I think the book had the most options to make a series out of.
      Overall, although the idea itself wasn't too creative, I think the series came out very good. I tried to go back into Macromedia to fix the lighting/ brightness of the photos to make them stand out more, but I had trouble getting them to all match up so I ended up saving most of them to how they were originally taken.
