FINAL DREAM STREET SEIRES

This is the final series of the Dream Street project that reveals all the best treasures that I found throughout the three drafts. I have continued to develop these images so that they could stand out in color and shades. This final project allowed me to focus in on everything that I learned about photography and post it all in one final series. These images were processed through tilt-shift and they were captured from different angles to portray the idea of self-expression.

DREAM STREET DRAFT 3

This is the third dream street project that reveals another series of images of street signs and buildings. These images are not as bright because of the lighting and I also wanted to add darker images to this series of photography. These images were taken at different angles in order to capture a specific sections of the street treasures. These images are not black and white, but they are darkened through tilt-shift in order to provide the images with more emotion and self-expression.

DREAM STREET DRAFT 2

This is a second draft of my dream photography series, which reveals images that were developed through tilt-shift, which provides blurred backgrounds. This series portrays images of street signs, and trees, which were captured from different angles to make the objects look more bold. By adding a blurred background allows one to focus more on the main object, rather then the background. My series of dream photography is captured through various shades and lightings.

DREAM STREET

I based this cohesive set of images on the idea of dream-like photography. These images were created through a system called tilt-shift that allows one to develop images with more saturation and contrast. As I explored the streets, I strived to capture more images of street signs, buildings, and trees. I position my camera in various angles in order to truly allow the image to stand out. When I took my images I made sure to focus my camera on a certain portion of the image and blur the rest of the background.

HALLOWEEN SERIES

This was a Halloween based assignment that involved a sequence of our childhood fears and favorite super hero's. The images below were captured from different angles of light in order to allow the images to stand out in a layer of exposure and contrast. These images were developed through a website called picnik, which allowed every student to add their own special effects. Through picnik I was able to add wounds, blood splatters, and I was also able to add text to the images. Each of these pictures represent self-expression because each student reflected on their childhood fears and recaptured scenes from old cartoons and comics.

SHORT STORIES

For this assignment our class was given a task that was based on a new approach of photography. This project involved creating a scene based on small action figures or "real life" human situations. Part of this assignment also involves capturing a "slice of life", which are images of a figure or individual in a certain position or motion. This project allowed one to excel with the idea of self expression because every student received the opportunity to construct their own scene using actors or toy figures.
