This is the part of the project where you will start to make more independent choices about your work. You will continue to focus on 'Close Ups' as this is your overall project title, but within it, you will have 2 choices, then other choices within those. The first choice you will need to make will be: Do you want to focus the rest of your project on either: Architecture or Nature How to create a visual mind map in order to develop ideas independently. What is a visual mind map? A combination of images and text, with key words and descriptions, that explores lots of ideas linked to your chosen title. How do I do well at this task? - You will explore lots of different ideas - Choose photographs that are inspiring and technically interesting - Include names of photographers where possible so you can refer to them later - Use key words in your descriptions (eg. the formal elements - composition, lighting, tone, shape, line, texture, pattern etc.) - Give your opinions about some of your favourite pictures. What do you like about them? On a PowerPoint slide, create a visual mind map for either Architecture OR Nature. Include key words, photographs, and some descriptions and/or further ideas linked to your photos. Think about: How does each photograph inspire you? How could you recreate the photo yourself? If you would rather break down your ideas into multiple slides so the slide is less full that's fine, but ensure that you have the same amount of information. QUICK TIP If you aren't sure where to start, look at the mind maps at the top of the page to help you! When you are finished, please upload your PowerPoint to your Close Up page using a Document element in Build. When you have finished and uploaded the above task, next, you need to find one more photographer that is going to inspire your work. The photographer must photograph your choice of subject (architecture or nature). Look at all of the artists for your title, then select one and complete the task below.
Your task is to write a paragraph about the work of your chosen photographer to anaylse the way they photograph your chosen subject. You should include: - 3 photographs of their architecture/nature close ups. - key information about their work from the things you have read about (not the photographer - the work itself) - Your own observations of the photography techniques and formal elements that you see - eg. how does the photographer use composition, lighting, line, shape, tone etc? - Your opinion and explanation of how you will take inspiration from their work. If you need help getting started, copy and paste these sentences and fill in the gaps. The photographer I have chosen is... Having read about their photography, I have learnt that... When I look at _____'s photographs, I can see... One of the reasons that I have chosen this photographer to inspire my work is because I like ... I will take inspiration from ____'s work by... When you have chosen/at the end of the lesson: Please email me the name of your photographer (as the subject of your email) with one of your chosen pictures (by the photographer) copied and pasted into the email. Create one or more edited photographs in the style of your new photographer. You should ideally use your hanbury hall photos, but any of YOUR OWN photographs from this year are fine. (obviously go with those that fit into your choice of nature/architecture) make sure you have finished your mind map and uploaded it to your website, and also completed the artist paragraph. Get ahead by doing one of the following optional homeworks:
- new photos of something different - eg. if you are photographing water linked to your new artist. - a photoshoot to recreate the style of your new photographer - an edit of one or more of your hanbury hall photos in the style of your new photographer - either use photoshop via the home page, or any other editing programme you might have at home. Upload them to your website under the title 'Going for Gold homework'!
