The 12 images below are my final images from shoot 1 that I chose to edit using photoshop. I shot all my images in raw meaning therefore that when put into photoshop an editing page appears which only appears when shooting raw which allows you to change the exposure, saturation ect this is the only page I used to edit my images with only editing them slightly boosting the exposure and sometimes booting the saturation to make the colours a bit warmer.
I have defiantly learnt a lot from this brief which I will be able to consider and carry forward in my up coming second and final shoots for this brief. Most certainly the biggest part being to use as much colour on the selected areas of the body enables the camera to focus more because the paint was acting as light, making the image quality and sharpness very good. I have developed the understanding of this in my work as shown as starting with just the lips which didn't work well, to developing to painting all over the face to finally adding paint to the hands which added extra light to the image allowing the camera to focus even more.
I have chosen the images below to be my final section for a variety of reasons, they are my sharpest, they best relate to my research and how I intended my images to look with the eyes being a focus point of the images, they all create a different feeling with not all the poses being the same a lot of the images being scary at first glance but also the added emotion of mystery. I also love the framing of the images with in some of the images having the model to one side of the frame and the other side in complete darkness this was done purposely to add interest. A section of my image containing depth of field in one having the front of the face on one side blurry and the back other half of the face in focus. Another one is the image which has one side of the face showing the paint and is vibrant and the other side only showing the eye in colour the rest of the face in complete darkness.
The camera settings I used for these images were ISO 3000 aperture 3.2 and shutter speed 1/30th.
My model from a mixed race ethnic background the blue, green and white stood out the most when I have experimented with models from different backgrounds I will be able to compare and contrast.
It took me some time to chose and edit my final images but I am pleased with my decisions and believe that I will certainly come back to these images when choosing my final images to get framed for this brief as these images completely related to my research and how I desired my images to come out. I am motivated for my up and coming shoots where I will be using more than one model.
