Assignment 5.

Vee Speers.

Style-

Most of Vee Speers photography is very clean and normally white/cream back ground.Or she uses different places as his back ground. She mostly uses very pale colors  in is work.She take's photography of mainly people.Mostly most of his photos are very pale in there faces and rest of their body is meanly pale.The clothing is also in very pale colors such a red,pink.baby blue,grey. These's are the colors he mostly uses light colors. Some of she time he uses object's in the photo to create effect. And tell us more about what the story of the photo is.Mainly most of his work is taken of younger people,children and young adults.In a lot of his work the people in the photos look very miserable and sad. You can see this in their facial expressions. All tough some of the photography is in a black and white effects.


Technique-  

She takes most of his photography in a studio but sometimes dose take photo's with different back grounds bu i do think these's have been edited  in.Not very often but sometimes just in different sense/places. I recon he uses a digital camera, And i think she also dose some editing in photo shop or somewhere. To make the pictures more pale and backgrounds and black and white effects etc.And i think he uses artificially lit.

Narrative-

Personally i think his story behind his photography is very sad and shows a lot of effect he is very creative with it and doesn't give away all of what the story is,it just give little hits so we can think about what we think about it and can make our own options on what we think its about and what we think the story is.I think it is better like this and make's the photo more interesting to look at.Like in one of his photo.

Context-

She has done most of her work in photography in the 1990's and did

Assignment 5.

Summary of John Hedgece.


Style-

He normal uses black and white effects on his work, photographed a variety of subjects but was best known for his portraits of artists and writers. His style ranged from the formal,such as posed shots of artists with their work in the studio, to close-ups revealing their various reactions to being photographed. Hedgecoe took portraits of Henry Moore, Francis Bacon, David Hockney, John Betjeman, Ted Hughes and Agatha Christie, but his most famous sitter was the Queen. Hedgecoe's image of her has effectively sold more than 200bn copies, as it is used on postage stamps. It is credited with being the most frequently reproduced image in the world.


Technique-

He dose a lot of his work in studio,he dose also likes using the black and white effect that he dose really like using a lot in is work.

Narrative-  

I think the story that the photograph is trying to show is a classic photo of usually someone famous just showing the true them.

Style-

Trouper's photography is very basic and bland but very effective.He uses color a lot,normal very bight depending on the image,But this dose make the picture more effected and the pictures are usually  very simple and easy to see what  effected he's trying to go for,the message/effect is very clear.

assignment 4.









Perou.

Factual-

Ralph John Perou (born May 1970), known professionally as Perou, is a British fashion, portrait and music photographer who has also appeared as a judge onMake Me a Supermodel UK and on season 2 of Bravo TV's American Make Me a Supermodel. He was part of the T.V series called "Dirty Sexy Things" on the British network E4 which aired in 2011. Perou photographed models to be put in his exhibition at the end of the series.
Perou was born in Newick, a small village in East Sussex, England. Perou has stated that he, ‘had a very happy, carefree childhood growing up in the countryside. It's where I discovered my love of English cider’[1] He went to primary school at Newick Church of England school and completed secondary school at Chailey andHaywards Heath Sixth form. When Perou finished his Religious Studies and Design A levels he considered a career as a long-distance lorry driver or as a missionary. But Perou states that he ‘saw the dark’ and after a short stint as a butler he completed a BTEC OND in Design Photography at North East Surrey College of Technology.
Between 1991-1994 Perou studied for a BA Hons degree in Photography, Film and Video Arts at the University of Westminster.


Context-

These's photo have been mostly  taken of  people we all know (famous people) e.g Tom Daily. Mostly these photo have been taken as a series o images not just one image.



Technical-


All of these photo have been taken in a studio using a digital camera.
In the first image i think the red stuff(could be paint)i think it has been done on photo shop because the paint would be on them and very easy to seek,but cant see any so i think its been edited in.

Anesthetics-

I really like all of these photo and all of perou's work because all of him images and these's images are all very basic but very effected and easy to understand the effect he was trying to go for,they all show something different although they are all in the same sort of style.

Assignment 3.



Depth of field.

What is depth of field?

n optics, particularly as it relates to film and photography,depth of field (DOF) is the distance between the nearest and farthest objects in a scene that appear acceptably sharp in an image. Although a lens can precisely focus at only one distance at a time, the decrease in sharpness is gradual on each side of the focused distance, so that within the DOF, the unsharpness is imperceptible under normal viewing conditions.
In some cases, it may be desirable to have the entire image sharp, and a large DOF is appropriate. In other cases, a small DOF may be more effective, emphasizing the subject while de-emphasizing the foreground and background. In cinematography, a large DOF is often called deep focus, and a small DOF is often calledshallow focus.


How is there depth of field in the picture?
this photo show quite good because the main focus is the little girl in the red dress.The rest of the photo doesn't really stand out too much because all  it is basically green and then so the girl really sticks out because she's wearing a bright red dress and the rest of the photo is blurred out so the first thing you see and mostly look at in the photo is the little girl.

factual-

24 March 1932 – 3 June 2010,he was an award-winning British photographer and author of over 30 books on photography. He established the photography department in 1965 at the Royal College of Art, where he was Professor from 1975 to 1994 and Professor Emeritus until his death. He was also Pro-Rector of the college from 1981 to 1993. His photographs appear in permanent collections at the New York Museum of Modern Art and London's National Portrait Gallery.

Context-

This is a one and only image of a little girl taken not so long ago.

Technical-

I think this has been taken out side,with a digital camera.i think this photo is just a natural photo with practically not editing in it.

Aesthetic-

I really do like this photo because it is really bright and peaceful  and is juts over all really cute and the child bring's out the joy in the photo and makes it more happier and more of a loving photo to look up.
