Slide 5
Production Studio photos These photos where taken experimenting
with lighting and gel affects on a snoot.
Slide 6
Best photo I feel that this is the best photo because it
captures everything in the motion and you can see the usage of Gel
in the effect on the right hand side of my body. Also I like the
way the lighting cast shadows across me but did not make any
apparent on the background.
Slide 7
Shoot evaluation The original intention of the shoot was to
capture a set of pictures that showed the different lighting
methods and use of gels. I realised the planned intention by being
a model for this shoot. The shoot ideas did change as It went
through the process as the lighting positions changed along with
the positioning of the gel.
Slide 8
Final image of shoot I chose to edit the photo and put it into
black and white as I feel that in this form it captures the raw
power and emotion in the photo which might be lost in colour due to
looking at clothes and other aspects of the picture if it where in
coloured form.

second the battery compartment and the third the case cover.
Slide 26
I believe this image was created using two photos, the first a
squirrel and the second the bird. They than would have merged the
head onto the body and copied the pattern onto the head.

Slide 32
Evaluation Breakdown Image 1- this image was created using the
following tools in Photoshop; copying, layers, image adjustments
(contrast, opacity, levels), lasso tool, paint brush, merging.
Image 2 this image was created using the following tools in
Photoshop; copying, transforming (free), lasso tool, image
adjustments (contrast, opacity, levels), layers and purging. Things
that went well where, the photo editing, shooting pictures both of
site and in studio, finding examples of inspiration in the field of
manipulation. Next time I think I would try different editing
methods to make the changes easier and more effective. I opt for
the images I shot because when researching image manipulation I was
inspired by a theme of nature and life from, building and plant
merging to animal and person merging.
Slide 33
Project evaluation The point of this Project was to explore
lighting methods and manipulation in photography. In this project I
have achieved goals such as learning more about studio operations
and lighting also health and safety in studios and off set/out in
the field. In the coming future I will use the experiences and the
knowledge I have learnt in this project to improve upon my
performance in order to deliver a better quality of work.
