Final shoot - Contact sheet

This is my Final shoot it was taken over 4 different ideas for location I could link emotion to. It consisted of 4 mini-shoots in a pool. on the cliffs, in the forrest and around school. Each one with a blur of colour, influenced by Brice Bischoff, in which represented my emotions and feelings towards the places. Although, I know that everyone has there own take on what colours represent so the feelings won't be mutual. I achieved this by the same method as my fourth shoot, but this time I also took an image of thee background. This enabled me to edit the blur and merge it to the background. This helped as I had little help with the is picture, so I was forced to use a remote. Most the time I was in frame, but using the technique above, I was able to easily edit myself out of the photo.
I rustled the paper while taking the shot. I had to use a 10 stop filter again in all the outdoor locations as in most cases it was too sunny to not use the filter, this gave a blue tint to the the original photos which I was able to edit in raw. The use of filters links back to my work at looking at James Welling which first gave me the idea to use a filter but also the practical use of reducing the light getting in the camera.
As I took more and more shoots I got better at using the technique. This enabled me get better pictures consistently rather than trial and error process which happened in shoot 3 and 4.
The shoot worked well as in some cases it showed how my artist Bischoff, was able to take my pictures in raw, which benefited me in the post-production process again with the filters blue tint.
I managed to get quite a few pictures out of this shoot and had to narrow it down to 5 pictures with different locations.  These will be my final pieces which I will mount onto foam board to display in a row of 5.
