Critical Analysis Of A Fellow Students Work


1.Firstly use 5 words to describe that work Landscape Monochromatic Tonal Faded Contrasting 2. Now comment on the images form This means looking at the formal elements of an artwork. What is the medium of the work? The medium of the work is digital pigment print. What kind of shapes or forms can you find? In the photograph, I see curvy, rounded, naturally formed shapes in the photograph Which techniques have they used? They have used Photoshop to digitally manipulate the photograph. What kinds of textures can you see? I can see rough and rigid textures in the photograph, However, I can also see smooth textures. 3. Finally, consider the mood and meaning of the work Mood means looking at how the artist has created a certain atmosphere or feeling. How does the work make you feel? The photograph makes me feel skeptical and overwhelmed. Why do you think you feel like this? I think I feel skeptical about the photograph because it's the not knowing how far the image really is like it is going for miles on end. I think I feel overwhelmed about the photograph because I feel that when I view the photograph, I am standing on top of a hill, looking out with the huge hills, mountains, and valleys towering over me. Does the colour, texture, form or theme of the work affect your mood? The colour most definitely affects my mood because if the photograph was in colour, my mood would be more uplifting whereas the photograph is black and white and so it makes my mood feel emotional.

Editing in RAW

When shooting in RAW, which contains data which is minimally processed either from an image sensor of a digital camera. This format is unready for printing because they are not processed. In order to process the image, I double clicked on the RAW, unprocessed image in the location that the image was in. This then opened up camera RAW which allowed me to make manipulations, improvements and changes to many different things.  Once I had finished making the changes that I wanted to the image, I had to save it. When i saved the image I changed the format to TIFF so that I could print the image and I saved it again but this time as a JPEG so that I could put it onto my blog. Below is the edited versions of my photographs.

Source: http://www.cheimread.com/artists/adam-fuss "I see the photogram as being much more truthful and more honest because it's just recording light. There is no manipulation of that light, in the way that a lens manipulates light." - Adam Fuss Adam Fuss was born in 1961 in London but he grew up mainly in Australia. In 1980 Fuss started working as a photographic apprentice at Ogilvy & Mather Agency. He later made a move to New York, this is where he first started to record and document the natural environment around him through photography using a pinhole camera. This later guided Adam to experiment with alternative photographic processes, which later on led to him abandoning using the camera completely. Fuss's photographic works are unique for their contemporary reinterpretation of the earliest techniques of photography, specifically the photograms and camera-less techniques. Fuss believes that to make photographic techniques work, they should be person...

Stitching/Panorama

I created a stitched (photo merge) image by taking many photographs which overlap very slightly in order to produce a final panoramic image. I began by opening photoshop and going to the "File" menu and then "Automate" and then clicking on "Photomerge". By doing this, it opens up a tab which allows me to change what sort of photo merge I am going to produce and it also allows me to browse the files that I would like to use for the photo merge. I then browsed through my files to find the exact files that I wanted to use. Once I clicked open, it layered and merged the photos together into one final panoramic image. Once the final image was created I flattened the image by hovering over the "Layer" and then clicked on "Flatten Image" which brought all the layer into one. Below are my 2 final panoramic images that I created. The 2 final images above are underexposed so when I create a panoram...
