Key photograph no5

This is the contact sheet for the series of photographs based around the MRC, I wanted the building to be  further towards the right to get more sky in the image. I chose IMG_2650 as I think it is the best suited for its role in the poster, and frames the area well.
I can not find the original un-edited image or the edited image without the frame.

This is the final edited image that has had the frame added to it,  I really like how this image has turned out. The effects I used to achieve this finish to the sky was the curves adjustment. It was purely by accident I managed to get this effect though, it was mainly achieved by darkening the light colours and brightening the darker colours, this did create a whacky effect around the trees.

Dan Boulton

           Dan Boulton was born in 1973 Enfield in North London. His style of photography is a cross            

           between street photography and documentory. His work has been featured in magazines and 

           also has been on show in galleries.

           He has also worked on 2 books that are based around his Southbank work.

           

           

           His visual style is grimy and dark and around skateboarding in general. His images are all

           slightly out of focus

           

This image is is called Sounthbank 53 its not black and white

           
           The image shows his or someone else's shadow the image is also out of focus. This is most
           likely a choice that Dan made as it gives the image have character

         

The image is called Southbank 16

           This image is out of focus or its motion blur. the image depicts a person presumable is  a skater

           whom is posing next to a wall of graffiti. This could be to show the how the youth do not think 

           highly of the rulers/ law.

                                   

The image is called Southbank 8           

           This image is depicting what looks like a grimy floor with crushed cans on the floor. this could
           to represent the soiety that we live in, with everything being dark and gloomy with out much
           to rely on.

Key photograph no4 poster

Contact Sheet:

My intention for this series of photographs is for them to be on the DVD cover and the poster as the photograph. The framing and lighting used was to match the other images being used on the poster and DVD cover, I also wanted a 1 colour background to make editing the image easier for the poster and DVD cover.

ORIGINAL PICTURE

need to get off laptop

I chose to use this image as it had the best contrast between the background and the character. The image also had the character, the non actavist, in a pose that made them look as if they didnt care about what went on around them.

ADJUSTED IMAGE

need to get off laptop

This is the image after it was edited i used pretty much the same filters on this as i did on the other images. So i used the vibrance and altered the RGB to darken the lighter colours slightly. I also croppd the image closer to the actor.

FRAMED IMAGE

This is the final framed image i think it is a success and it does have a high quality resolution wise and it is pretty good on the lighting front.
