Task:3 Evaluation (Unit:9 P3)

Your final Task is to evaluate the work you have just exhibited. You will need to
discuss the following points about your work, the exhibition and the campaign. Use
the following paragraph headings to help you.

1. What are you thoughts on the finished product:? (50 Words Min)
I am very pleased with the way my photos came out. I really like the photos where the lady is going down the rope as it came out the way I had planned it to and looked how I wanted it to look. the photos at the keypad I liked but they werent my favorite as I didnt really know what to do with them and I hadnt really planned where I was going to go and take the photos. The machanic photo I liked but would have prefered it if I had got a far away shot.


2. Does it look how you originally planned? (50 Words Min)
Some of my photos looked how I had planned them the vampire one came out really good I thought as I thought of where I was going to do it on the day so I hadnt really planned it. It was quite difficult to get the shots i wanted in this photo as it was coing out blury and out of focus. 

3. What do you think about the qualities of your work? In Focus, Good bad lightetc? (50 Words Min)
I like the lighting in all of my photos. The vampire photo I think the lighting is good as it shows it is on a stage as it is not natural light but it is not in focus as most of the charecters are blury. I dont like that I can see a computer in the background. The photos at the keypad I like but I dont really like the background as you cant really tell where it is meant to be and it isnt really advertising the college. I think the mechancis photo is in focus and you can tell it is mechanics and the charecter fits the role of what it is doing. The lady sliding down the rope is a bit blury and out of focus.

4. Give your ideas about comments from others, eg audience, peers, tutors, client
(50 Words Min)
The comments I got were good and people seemed to like my photos. People said that my photos were"imagineitive" and "carefully taken" also someone like the angle of my keypad photo as you can see the length of the keypad.

Exhibition Day

This task is to Print, Frame/mount you pictures in lesson for and exhibition. To plan for this exhibition you will need as a class to think about:
· Where to hold the exhibition

The exhibition may have pictures hanging from the ceiling and pictures on easel's.

· Titles for the Photos
The photos will have their own sub titles but the main tilte will be The Little People Of The College. My photographs that will be at the exhibition are called "A commanding preformance" and "zip lining".

· Health and Safety
There should only be a certain number of people in the room at one time as photos may be hanging from the ceiling and boards will be up with photos on so the more people in the room the more likely it is for people to walk into things. Also wires maybe on the floors because of lights. Tables and chairs could be in the room so people will have walk around minding tables, chairs, and the photographs.
  • Create a Poster for the event
During the exhibition you will need to get feedback on your photos. This feedback will help you when writing your evaluation.
You will need to get photos of your work being exhibited during the exhibition. These Photos will need to go onto your blog.

Slinkachu

My 'Little People Project' started in 2006. It involves the remodelling and painting of miniature model train set characters, which I then place and leave on the street. It is both a street art installation project and a photography project. The street-based side of my work plays with the notion of surprise and I aim to encourage city-dwellers to be more aware of their surroundings. The scenes I set up, more evident through the photography, and the titles I give these scenes aim to reflect the loneliness and melancholy of living in a big city, almost being lost and overwhelmed. But underneath this, there is always some humour. I want people to be able to empathise with the tiny people in my works.

In 2008 I started the ‘Inner City Snail’ project, involving the decoration of snails that I find around London. After decoration, the snails are then placed back, free to go about their business in the city. In many ways similar in theme to the 'Little People Project', Inner City Snail can also be seen as a satire of street art and, more generally, our need to cover every available surface of our cities with graffiti, signage and advertising.

For the close up pictures the artist may have used macro photography and for the further away shots just took normal photogarphs.

macro photography



The photo of the earphones and  ipod is my favourite photo. I like it because the earphones are close up but the ipod is in the background.

I also like this one as it makes the object look longer then it actully is.
I dont like the pictures of the rulers so uch as they are blury. if i was to do it again i would use a tri pod to help ake the images mire steady and clearer.
