Pictures For A Specific Purpose

Client - Selling Technology

I took this image as if I was employed by a business to sell a product.  In this case I was trying to sell a projector.  I took this image on the corner of the projector where it says all of the best features.  I have made it so 'HDMI' and 'DLP 3D READY' is where the eye first looks, the center and on the left.

I took this image as if I was employed by a business to sell a product.  In this case I was trying to sell a projector.  I took this image of the control pad, there is no real reason I took this it was just because I though that it looked good, I have made it so that it complies with the rule of thirds.

I took this image as if I was employed by a business to sell a product.  In this case I was trying to sell a projector.  I took this image so it is using lines and pattern to give perspective to the audience.  I have tried to show the best parts of the product and I have also tried to get the products manufacture in the majority of the pictures.

I took this image as if I was employed by a business to sell a product.  In this case I was trying to sell a projector.  I have taken this image of another camera ready to take a picture of the product, I was going to leave the image in full colour but the colour temperature was orange (CTO) so it didn't look good, so i changed it to black and white (B&W)

Concept - Close up

I took this image so that it was a close up, in this case I have taken the close up of a flour.  When I put this in Photoshop I decided that I would try to highlight the flour because it was in the middle and did not comply with the rule of thirds, so I made everything else black and white, and left the flour in full colour.

I took this image so that it was a close up, in this case I have taken the close up of a light bulb.  This did not go as planned because when I took the photo it was so close I could not take the light shade out of focus.  However the wicker of the light shade has given this image good texture.

I took this image so that it was a close up, in this case I have taken the close up of a light with some smoke in the light.  This does comply with the rule of thirds, because the main focal point of the image (the light bulb) is above the center.

I took this image so that it was a close up, in this case I have taken the close up of a spray.  This is complying with the rule of thirds and i have put this image on a slant so you can see perspective.  slight colours have been used in this image but not so much that your eyes would be automatically drawn to it.

Event - Need A New School

In this image I have tried to make the school look bad, this is almost like trying to sell the school, but instead of trying to make it look good, I had to make it look bad.  In this image I have shown the technology block sign which is smashed, but that I have shown the clear bright blue sky in the background.  I have done this because it gives a good comparison between the clarity of the sky, and the mess of the school sign. 

In this image I have tried to make the school look bad, this is almost like trying to sell the school, but instead of trying to make it look good, I had to make it look bad.  In this image i have shown the crack in the wall, i have taken this image so that it complies with the rule of thirds.  The texture in the wall as well as the lines at the bottom of the wall give this image perspective.

In this image I have tried to make the school look bad, this is almost like trying to sell the school, but instead of trying to make it look good, I had to make it look bad.  In this image I have shown a display in the building, the first line of this sign reads fault, this word was the focal point of the image.  The reason i have decided to take a picture of this is because I though that it would make the school seam as if it has many faults. 

In this image I have tried to make the school look bad, this is almost like trying to sell the school, but instead of trying to make it look good, I had to make it look bad.  I have taken this image not to make the school look bad, but then when i turned the image black and white it looked like the school was dirty, when i selected the blue to stay in colour you could see all of the rust on the bars and you can see how dirty it is.  This image also complies with the rule of thirds as the center of the image is just the darkens of the floor.

Portrait - Close up People

When taking images of people the photographer must have the people standing in the correct place, you must also make sure that there is a definite foreground and background difference.  In this image I believe I have done this because it is a close up of the people.  This image also complies with the rule of thirds.  

When taking images of people the photographer must have the people standing in the correct place, you must also make sure that there is a definite foreground and background difference.  This image shows one person standing in the center, usually this does not work because of the rule of thirds, but in this case it looks good because there is not much information in the background, it is just a plane blue colour.  This is a medium to close up image, I have done this because I though that if i went for a wide angle set up then there would have been lots of unwanted details which the audience does not want to see.

When taking images of people the photographer must have the people standing in the correct place, you must also make sure that there is a definite foreground and background difference.  This image shows three people all wearing quite plane clothes, so I had them stand in front of a colorful background, I also made sure that the background and the foreground was lit with the correct lighting.

When taking images of people the photographer must have the people standing in the correct place, you must also make sure that there is a definite foreground and background difference.  This image shows three people at a wedding.  If I was doing this again i would have them stand in a different place so that it would remove the over exposed background.  This image does however bring out the reds in the image.
