Concept: My image is supposed to be about finding your inner-self, in ways like meditation. It is supposed to express the fact that he is alone and it is all up to him from here.
Method: I knew I wanted a meditation pose from the beginning, but my model, Drew, found the rock on the water.
Motivations: My goal was to show a peaceful shot that would work with the quote I had found.
Context: My work relates to the photographers that try to find inspirational shots. Sometimes they can be found on billboards on highways or other various places.
Interpretation: Others interpreted this piece mainly by the quote. As a way of looking into ones self.
Evaluation: People really seemed to enjoy the contrast of this shot, and the fact that the water looks like glass.
Extension: I could do a bunch of inspirational pieces or have many different places where one can meditate using the same model.
Composition: Another picture of mine with high contrast and a wide frame. Again the person is close to the edge, but this time he is placed on the right.
Concept: This picture is supposed to show someone rising above the influence, making a personal decision.
Method: I wanted a graffiti area, and my model to have more of a rough look to him. The "sober for once ha" just happened to be there and work perfectly.
Motivations: My goal was to create an inspiration for teens, to be strong and stand up for what they believe in.
Context: My work would relate to the other ads that promote healthy choices, such as anti-drug or alcohol abuse.
Interpretation: People saw this as a display against drug abuse, especially with the unintended words "sober for once ha" displayed next to the model.
Evaluation: People enjoyed the contrast and the lighting on his face. I wondered about the bright spot in the top left corner, but no one saw it as a problem.
Extension: It was said I could use this as an "Above the Influence" ad. So I could take several different shots that applied to this sort of thing.
Composition: A close up shot angled from the front with the subject slightly to the right. I used a medium contrast and a lot of detail.Concept: My image is supposed to express living each day to its fullest, it is made more clear through the text.
Method: After I read the quote this image immediately created itself in my mind, so I just went out and found it.
Motivations: My goal was to capture the perfect image for this quote and inspire people to live out their lives.
Context: Again this photograph would relate to some of the inspirational ads or billboards we see.
Interpretation: Again people perceive this photograph as the text explains it.
Evaluation: The clarity and sharpness of the photo was said to be good but one suggestion was to crop the photo a little wider to make the models crotch not the center of attention. Without the quote the picture could be very suggestive.
Extension: I could use this with the Ghandi quote photograph and make more inspirational pictures that follow certain quotes.
Composition: I chose to use the tree to help frame the subject. I used a high contrast as well and centered the model in the shot.
Concept: My image is an advertisement for the boots. But taking a second look at it I could also see it playing towards expressing the models character, like playfulness.
Method: I wanted to have most of the emphasis on the boots, I had them in puddles, hanging off of walls and in trees. I liked having the model with them, it gave the photograph something extra.
Motivations: The boots in the shot are actually my own and I love them so much. If you could see them closer you would see the wear and tear on them from wearing them so often. I wanted to advertise something that is important to me.
Context: My photograph would relate to other advertisements trying to sell shoe wear.
Interpretation: The interpretation of this image wasn't really said, but I believe it was seen as a simple shoe ad.
Evaluation: People really liked the way I cropped this photo with the tree close up in front, and the high contrast.
Extension: Either I could make more boot or shoe sales, or use similar angles in different candid shots of people.
This photo I did not choose as one of my finals.
