Unit 31 P1 Media Products
In my unit 31 the topic that I'm doing is photography where I show my understanding with the camera and using photoshop.My task includes me analysis 3 photographic.
Photographic Category: Around the world
​
Purpose
Photography who goes to poorer countries his photo shows how and the way they have to live with not much food supplies.
​
Target audience
For this, I think the audience would be for students or in the creative media side that would understand.As the project you will be able to know more information into the topic then any other work group. The specific age that I would chosen would be 18+
​
Lighting-The light is natural I mean this because of the sun lighting in the background helps its self of the owner's image and also brights more focus into the picture.
​
Meaning- The meaning of the images lets you only capture what's important, and explains that children are starving with hunger the light also helps on the photography hand and also the child.
​
Framing
For the framing, the photographer has only let you capture his hands and the little boy explains that his hungry and more like him who are also hungry I think the photo explains child without any food around the world.
​
Focus
Is to tell us that there can be families that struggling to feed them self and also their child and can struggle to find/give the basics to feed families without food children are forced to go without food the average human can go 2 days without food but since it's a long period of time then this can be lead to starvation to just a child.
​
Composition
the metal for this is trying to have the point of view of the child who is starving and to show support.
Photographer name: None
​
Photographic category
​
Category: Family
portrait, having the family frame in a portrait is better as you are able to see the photo better as as well as understand the look of the picture.
Purpose-
The purpose of having a child and having the picture symbol of the picture as a family. The picture can also tell a story of a long struggle of having a child.
Target audience
For this, I think it can be any new family with the age range of 25+ because I think that's the age of when any new family has a newborn.
Lighting- I would say there is no natural lighting because the photo is taken inside so the image should have needed a lighting off inside off like a cooling lamp.
Meaning- The meaning would be a start of the firstborn of its new family with memory stone.
Framing
The framing is simple because of the explaining of its show a new family making it not as hard to explain.
focus
The focus for this is about the family and this shows what a new family would start when having a newborn baby for the first time.
Composition
The metal used for this is the feet because it resembles a new member or could explain a death of a member and the framing is the last thing of what they have.
​
Photographer's Name: NONE​
Category: Night/horror
Purpose -To explain in the few of sleep with a night terrors they experienced as feeling not dreams so people don't recall why they are terrified upon awakening.
Target audience
Anyone who may have night terrors the acute age would be I would say is youngest would be 10-18
Adults 18-35+
Analysis- / Lighting
The picture doesn't have any light as it spouses to reflect on what's at night not day.
Composition/Framing
In this picture you see a girl sleeping but as she starts to drift off it captures someone watching her sleep.
Focus
The images only focus on the girl sleeping also her night terror that came and visited her I think the photographic react the night terror
Meaning
Night terrors fall under NREM sleep phenomena. They are different from nightmares as why occur early and details of a night terror. Are reminded night terror the mind remains asleep while the body looks awake a child will be confused and hard to reassure?
Composition
The mental this is easy to explain because as most people would just see this as a normal nightmare but really is called night terrors and would wake up from the night more often.
Google Vs Me
The image on the left is google the one on the right is what I have taken from my garden tree. Right now I don't know if the image I have gotten from Google has used photoshop but I decided not to include because I wanted to show what it really looks like but it could be because of the weather as I did take the photo during the summer/spring.
Kit list
For my kit list, I have a pack with me a DLSR pro camera with me I have chosen this because I think when taking photos the outcome when taking them looks very great, I like it when the camera also has a changeable lens as both can be good for two different things such as one can be good for filming while the other is good for photography. I have also brought a tripod but only for the photo that will require me to use the tripod inteand of holding it around my neck.
Unit 31 P2 Planning Photoshoot (cycle path)
This location Recce is for the Cycle path
Location Recce
Introduction
In my P2 intro, I'm here to talk about my theme which is about nature and the outdoors I’m also here to talk about is my kit list for my exhibition and this is having a Pro DSLR I have done this because it comes with changing lens and with it I'm able to have better quality I my photos my photos don't include a model neither props or even costume as my theme is based outside.
​
What I'm also are my shooting schedule and my risk assessment and also the ethical issues for the cycle path.
​
In my P3 I've included my 10 photos that I have been taking and I have analysed 5 photos out of my 10 that I have chosen also did some editing with the 5 photos and also the same five without any editing progress and my final five with the editing changes.
g) Legal & Ethical Issues
Legal Issues
Copyright- Is to protected useful arts this is to be use for limited photos as some by be used and
Resold as a fake picture for twice its price the copyright act was in from back in 1988 it can cover a wind range such as original works of authorship inuring literary, musical, arctic works kwon as poetry and novels other can include songs, computer software and architecture. knowing the copyright law I can make sure not use copyrighted images and take all the photos my self.
​
Model releases forms – is a legal release typically signed by who I my main subject for my photo shoot this is granting permission from my model to publish any photograph in a way of another.
Taking photos in public- taking someone picture without someone knowing doesn’t necessarily make it illegal if you were just snapping a photo with permission although for instance someone was just walking down the street they well be in their rights no matter what how violated you may feel.
Ethical Issues would be the arctic process such as the ownership of art (copyright), Ethics of publication (subject’s rights, Model Releases) this would be all under the belt of ethical issues. What make it an ethical issues is that the dilemmas is conflict and choice of the central moral. But in photograph is to avoid taking photos such as homeless, stands etc as this are topics that can’t be issued with the public eye.
C) Relevant equipment props and costumes
My equipment that I would be using for my photoshoot is an DSLR camera that I would be using for this unit /theme of photograph I have pick this because of the change of lens I'm able to use this to my advertised where I can be tasking the difference between the the two different lenses.
​
Tripod can be use to sometimes help for a steady hand if I unable to handle myself this can be seen as a benefit because then many of my photos that I would be taking without the tripod can come out a bit blurry but with help of the tripod I'm able to have a better focus of what I'm actually taken.
​
Costumes- N/a as my many of my plans would be taken without having a costumes to focus on as my ideas are to be taken without having to use any costume at all.
​
Props- My props would be N/A as I would be only be using the DSLR camera and tripod along with me this can be included the changeable lens as well.
​
e) Risk Assessment (cycle path)
Theme for photoshoot ideas
Choosing theme project nature
After planning my mindmap, I decided for my theme to be nature. This is from my outdoors ideas. I like this theme because of it's easily accessible and become the varied seasons which will give me different pictures.
Lifestyle magazine
I will be planning my photos to be used in a lifestyle magazine. Such as shown below. I have picked these style of the magazine due to the show of high quality of lighting that can be shown in both magazines I hope to use that kind of style to use in my photos. I would use these ideas as I would hope to created to something the same as the magazine below.
Magazine examples
Second ideas topic the outdoors( Back up plan)
Back up plan
I have a backup plan incase if my shoot does not work out I have pick to do the main outdoors of Bristol. I have said this because if there were anything gone wrong such as unavailable kit or shooting dates being clash with other events. When kit is available I plan to use the equipment and be take would be taking sample photos to see what they would look like if they are in good quality I would continue with this idea.
​
f) Shooting schedule (outdoors)
I've made a second Location Reece, Risk assessment and project schedule as I have plan to be using this idea instead of my original idea of the cycle path as I believe that I would have better ideas and photography coming out from the idea instead on sticking to one location.
​
Location Recce (the outdoors)
Risk Assessment for (outside)
Risk Assessment: In my risk, I have placed down appropriation solution to identify such as the hazard that can be a broken camera my solution would be to pay or it as it can not be fixed. I have chosen this as a high as because the damage of the camera can't be fixed due to how band the condition would be so instead it would be replaced with a new camera. The new risk level would be a medium as next, I would just be careful next time. Many other risks such as a rainy day. My plan to solve this to move it to later down when it's over or to the next day. The risk level would be a low as actions to lower this risk would be to check the weather forecast to see the weather. Another risk I would like to talk about is equipment being lost. I have first place this as a medium due to the location being in my back garden. My new risk would still be a medium as when I come to find many would have been lost by the time I'm finished.
What I have done with my risk assessment is that I have explained what I could happen when out on the shoot I have believed that I have, I have given the right risk level of a good explanation.
Project Scheduled: In my project scheduled I have given the time period from Friday to Tuesday. My project starts with my risk assessments I have started this on a Friday the 11th of May as I have started in school. My next task was my location recce in that I have to explain. What I would be using such as set/ props my prop explain would be a plastic plant for background photoshoot. The following day I have started my photoshoot my equipment that I used a DLSR cancon camera my first task was to take 10 unedited photos this has been done over the past two days (Saturday-Sunday). Monday I started to do the same thing but take ten unedited images with the settings from the camera.
Model Release Form
A Model release form a legal release typically signed by the subject granting permission model from photograph to the public. So if I were to have some to be taken photos of I would need to let sign the paper allowing me show the photos on wix.
The difference between the two model release form is the the one on the left shows some simler on what I would like he/she would sign.The one on the right shows what I would be using that is from Boomsatsuma website where I would be using their model release form as it would be understable to read and to have a better understanding.
What Media product are you taking these photographs for?
​
My media product I have pick is magazine layout what my topic would be is about nature and its about home living.This inspired me is the because of seen different style of the plants when walk outside or having plastic plants inside your home. I have taken plants that I have brought from home in to school that I have taken I hope to have my media product would be display towards a magazine( Show below).
Inside of Magazine
On my final media product I have chosen to do a magazine and what I would do for the inside I have pick these four as what I would do if I would have my magazine layout inside.
I have chosen to have my diegsn to be layout like this as I would like my photo to be displays something like this.As I would like to showcase what I have taken inside and out and as well the magaixe helps me as a guide on where I should be laying out my photos on a A4 paper.
Plan For P3 Photography (the outdoors)
10 unedited images

 |  |
I have taken photos over the weekend I have taken a total of 10 unit photos over the weekend. This shows mine understand so far of what I know about taken simple photos in the location in the photos I have chosen a specific media such as the outdoors to be my main idea. I believe that I have picked the right pictures that can cover what such as the exposure, Focus, and Framing.
I have taken many photos that can be based outside I think my risk assessment and Location recce can cover the wide range such as the correct location and as well giving the good amount of detail.
10 Edit photos from camera settings

 |  |
In this part of I have been taken another 10 set of photos but instead, I have been taking it with the settings form the camera. This can be taken from my garden as well I have done in a black and white setting. I believe that my lighting can show good quality this can be shown in the different angles and as well that can be fit for the right purpose. I believe so due what to I think I have been delivery towards the right product.
​
10 unedit photos with black backdrop
In these photos I have taken with backdrops thus can be seen from different angles of lighting from my main sources I have used 2 different lighting to help me with my photo shoot.
What I have used to help me force my camera were to fake plans that I have brought from home.
Why I have taken these to school were because of my themed and how I based it towards the same ideas, and as well I would to used then backdrop to get a better final outlook to use towards my Wix page I have picked this Formant to showcase my photos better and an easier way to show my 10 photos that I have taken.
Location: Where I have taken all 10 were in the media classroom in front of the door that can be lead to the main server. I have chosen that spot due to the space that was wide enough for me to be taken better quality. With also better set up equipment.
Behind the scene
Setting up equipment:
I have taken this photo to show the scene of before I have taken my photos what you see is the first light that can be seen standing up. As that can help me with the above shoot to help take care of the lightning from the side angles. While the other two can be based down on the ground in front of the two plants. In the sound picture, it can be seen with only two lightings. I have taken these photos to show that I have never continued with this idea because due to the lack lighting in but I will use the photo as a learning curve for the next time when I'm out on the next photo shoot.
How did you use the camera settings to ensure your photos were a good quality?
What I did was use the camera dialing to change my settings on the camera I did to view the different settings I've pick a close up setting and the manual setting. Because I think both would work very well with each other and I would like to continue with both of them further on some more.
My understanding of the composition rules are:
What I used to help with my photography were......
Background
I used a background (black) to compose my shot so that it doesn't distract or detract from the subject. As I only want people to focus on the picture nothing else as if I didn't have the background it would be distancing for anyone who would see the photos that I have taken.
BALANCING ELEMENTS
Thought I didn't use balancing element in the photoshoot I will use it in the next. In a higher setting, I can carry it out in my next unit such as unit 23& 43 electric session to show the location that we might be used by this able to shoe my understanding in my photoshoot.
DEPTH
I've used this technique to balance to objects of the photo command stop your attention equally. So you would see the first object clear and the second object behind it faded out.
Overall In my experience, I have used to two out three I learn that I can use what I have learned from my experience such as learning how to use balancing elements In future work where I hope to use as evidence that I have learned the new settings.
My source/Budget equipment would be:
DLSR Camera £ 420.99 with changeable lens
Black backdrop £14.99
Tripod £9.99
Lighting Kit £388.88
My overall total in my budget would come up £ 834.85
After finding all these only online on the side can be seen the links that I have found if you click one it would take you to the page where I have found the information.
What I would be using to upload my photos would be a
Dell computer£729.00
Dell Tower £ 358.47
Mouthy photoshop £ 9.99 to 19.99
Total £ 1127.46
Camera Settings (With pictures)
With this camera L have used two settings such as manual exposure and close ups I have used this two in my photoshoot.I have used close up to help me with getting a better shoot of photos that I are more in focus then the others while I used the manual to allow me to have a wide range of accusess use on the camera.
​
Screenshots of Camera Settings
I have this screenshots to show what I have been doing with the camera settings. I have used the manual setting this allows me to control the entire setting on the cameras such us changing the lighting, to the shade, this part of the camera that changes the light to a orange tone.This help when taking the photoshoot with the lighting equipment .
Photography rules composition
White balance- This can be used for natural-looking colours under specific types of lighting.
I've used this because it helps when I changed the lighting on the lighting equipment. This also shows off a better style of the setting during my photoshoot. I have many examples which are in my photo gallery.
Lighting layout
In this photo it shows what I have been using the lighting equipment for I have tested this out because of who I wanted to see how the ideas would look like before taken the photo.Thought I did it take the photo I have use this as an example on why I did use the photo I didn't use it because I believe that the lighting should show more around the back of the objects as I think it was too dark from behind.
Unit 31 P4 Analysis 5 photos
Analysis 5 Image's
In my first photo I have pick this what I have done taking earlier today.I have to be using photoshop to adjust the photo a bit although I have been using the lighting equipment to help me with better lighting.
In this its a bit darker then the first photo I will be solving the idea by having it done lighting in photoshop its to help view the picture better then seeing it in the oriangl photo although it does have some light I would like to have a better seeing of the photo.
My final photo I have pick to edited in photoshop.
In my first photo I have pick this what I have done taking earlier today.I have to be using photoshop to adjust the photo a bit although I have been using the lighting equipment to help me with better lighting.
Camera lens
The lens I have picked for when I have done my photoshoot is called a macro lens what the lens is able to do as to allow me to focus on small objects than normal lens than others allowing m to fill the object on the camera. As I used this lens it helps very well with close up photos such as the leaves on the planes and
pestles. The outlooks of the photos tuned out very good at the quality of the photos look better than if I was to use the other camera lens.
Unit 31 P4 Presenting Edit final Prices
Photo image 1 of fire
Before
After
In my first editing in my photo I have changed the the main colors of the tone for the piuter to change. I have change the levels of the programme I have pick red,magenta,Blue.
This were the colors that allowed me to change the levels to my first picture . this then given me the outcome of for my second photo of the flames to look the color of purple.
​
Before- In my first photo its shown to be the original photo before the editing has stated before I change the color on photoshop.Each of the settings show what have I change in so far.
​
Why I have change the colour to purple because of the pictures below this has caught my eye and inspired me to do the same and change the colour of my original to purple I have gotten the idea from Colossal Magazine .(Click button to take you to website)
​
Where the idea of changing the layer of the photo to another color and as well to have the settings of the picture to be taken at night give the photo a better and scary outlook towards the photo.
​
Magazine
I would use this design in my magazine as it shows what I have been doing within photoshop and it gives me something to say where I have gotten the idea from. I would say this is show as evidence of what I been doing within my topic.
Photo Inspiration
I have pick these 3 photos as they were to be inspiration for some of my photos for example. The picture of the fire where as you see the main color has change to purple.
Photo image 2 of black and white flower
After edit
Before edit
In this I have change the colour channels, and what I have done is taken down the red,green,blue this has given me the black and white theme I wanted.
Before
Photo 3 Zoom in bush
After
What I have do with this photo is that I have brighten the photo levels as because the first picture shows it a bit darker. So I have increased the brightness to showcase the photo to be a better final outlook towards the final photo.
Before editing
Photo 4 Plant pot (plastic)
After editing
What I did with the original photo was change the density to the color green the number I switch to is 100% I've left the photo to that color as it shows what I've been doing in photoshop.
What I have done here is that I crop the photo a little and change the level of the brightness is not much of a change between the original picture.The arrow can be showing the cropping tool.Next to the photo I have change I've used the channels programme and I have taken off the blue and the RGB (Red,Green,Blue) atllthougher.What I will do for this pictures is change the level of the brightness just a bit and I will be putting my final photo in my P5 gallery.
After editing
photo 5 Plant pot 2 (plastic)
Before editing
In my final edit I have included the before and after to show you the difference between the original photo and the editing photo.What I have to show is the properties this allows me to change the lookup of the the color I have change it to Moonlight 3DL , Cobalt-Carmine, Teal Magenta Gold This given me a change to have a better and final look out of the my edit photo.
My layout of magazine
Why are the photos appropriate to go on a magazine?
I think its appropriate as it shows what I would like to have the magazine layout to be such as have the main photo on the left.Where it shows the full A4 picture and a few texts laying around the pages.While the main text on the left sides shows the explaining part either its talking about something else or about the picture on the right. My idea was to have something like this to show on a similar design to the magazine.
Explain how the edit has changed the image?
The images have is that one idea has purple text (superimposition with text and image) with a black and white background the original photo was in color background how I change this was from the setting from the camera of the camera. I also believe that editing changes the image by placing text over the front image as it would show a little improvement from the original photo. I also think editing change the photo as some of the photos that I have taken were a bit dark so I exchange the level of the brightness to a 112%. As this help change the picture as you are able to see better. Author reason why editing has to change the photo was the level of contrast of the image for example what I have done is change the whole color to green. As before the original photo we have seen the lighting form the lighting equipment.
Why did you edit them?
This helps change the picture as you are able to see better and clearer of what I'm trying to show you with my pictures. I have also edited especially with one of the photos that have the purple text that show what the start of the magazine display idea. Editing helps as I'm able to fix a few problems that I could not do when photography. What I think also helps is that I'm able to just adjust the lighting as some of the photos have already have been included with lighting already.
Why did you choose these?
I have picked these 5 images as they were I have chosen to use different filters for my editing techniques. This help me out with some photos that I have edited. Edit my photos as also help on what I would like to have my magazine to look like or to be displayed as I would like it to be I would include my final editing photos if I were to display them.
Magazine layout ideas
I have pick these Ideas for magazine layouts of my double page spread. I'm doing this to show what my design would look like with the the pictures I have taken.
Unit 31 P5 present a range of the best photos
I have present my final 5 edit photos in a slideshow to showcase what I have been editing with photoshop.My photos have included colour change of the photo and have text over the photo(this can include the black and white photo).And as well change the color filler on the photo this can be linked with the flame of fire.
