Phobia Project

A. Phobia is extreme or irrational fear or dislike of a specified thing or group.

B.
1) Enochlophobia- Fear of crowds.
2)Acrophobia- Fear of heights.
3)Atelophobia- Fear of imperfection.
4)Claustrophobia- Fear of confined spaces.
5)Lygophobia- Fear of darkness.

 C. Phobia Photo ideas:
Some photo ideas are to include a friend or myself as the subject and using many different angles and methods to show off the phobia and transport the feeling of the subject through the photo. For example, for the fear of heights I will use angles to really show how high up the subject is. I will make the subject look the way they feel of the phobia. They will dress differently for the different fears and where the location/ setting is.

Three different shoots:
1) For the fear of darkness, I will show the subject reaching for the light as they look terrified. This will most likely be taken in a house.
2) For the fear of confined spaces I will show the subject in a confined space which will be taken where ever I can find a confined space.
3) For the fear of heights I will show my subject up high as they look towards the ground. This will be taken wherever I can find a high- up location.

 D. For the three photos I will use these rules:
1) Fear of darkness - leading lines, and simplicity.
2)Fear of confined spaces- Simplicity.
3)Fear of heights- Rule of thirds and leading lines.

Academic shoot

Image
1. Avoid mergers 2. The subject of my photo is the two boys in the back writing and the boy scratching his head. the merger is the blonde boy in the bottom of the photo. 3.I think it is fairly clear that the 3 boys are the main subject with the blond boy as the merger. 4. If people couldn't easily tell I could have gotten closer to the boys and maybe have made my subject smaller and done 2 boys instead of 3. (and a half) 1. Rule of thirds 2.The subject of my photo is the girl reading her book 3. It is pretty clear whom my subject is since she is what the photo mainly focuses on. 4. If it isn't clear, I should have gotten closer to her and crop out the boy on the far left. 1. Simplicity 2. The subject of my photo is the piece of art. 3. I think it is pretty clear since the main thing in focus is the drawing. 4. If it isn't clear I should have used a high aperture setting to blur out everything except for my main subject. 1.balance 2. The subject of m...

Academic shoot reflection and critique

1. Some of the challenges I faced while trying to follow the rules during the shoot was, that it was hard to find all of the rules. I thought it would be easy but it was actually kind of hard to find some of them. Not only that but as a photographer, i personally like more of a clear background but you can't do that with academic shoots since their are people everywhere! Lastly, their was not the best lighting since it was in a classroom. 2. I thought the most about the rules since that was what we were out there to do. I also focused on flipping the camera horizontal for some photos that I needed a closer and more full- body picture for. 3. If I could do the shoot again, I would try to get closer to some of the "subjects" to make sure it focuses only on the things I wanted in the photo. 4. I would keep my balance photo, my lines photo, and the simplicity picture. These are my favorite photos since I feel that they are good examples of the rule. 5. I think that the ne...

The Camera

                                                                The Camera                 1. The "camera obscura" effect is an optical effect which inside a completely dark room, a small hole is made. Through the hole, light is focused and the optical effect is projected upside down on the opposite wall. 2. When Isaac Newton and Christian Huygens perfected the understanding go optics which helped getting to the modern camera. 3. In 1827, Joseph Niépce added film which pretty much created the modern camera. 4. Modern Cameras still use film and has the same basics except Niépce camera took over 8 hours to expose. 5. digital cameras use electronic sensors called a CCD. to capture a photo. The photographs are stored on the reusable computer memory.           ...
