Camera Overview

This semester I’m using a Nikon D3400 digital camera. After reading the manual I’ve discovered a few new capabilities of my camera. Using the SnapBridge app, I can connect a phone or tablet to my camera with bluetooth. There is also an option to record videos using the live view mode. Additionally, there are a wide variety of “scene” modes. There is a portrait, landscape, child, sports, close up, and night portrait options. Each mode automatically selects the best settings for each focus. These are just a few of the effects I discovered while reading the manual.

Rules for Final Artist Emulation

For my final project I want myself to... One thing I've been trying to work on is pulling out on my subjects and getting a larger view. A lot of the time I close in too close to the subject. I want to instead pull back and crop in during post production if necessary. take shots at multiple angles Have a range of both vertical and horizontal pictures Capture white skies, this was a trend of Frank Breuer. Another habit of Breuer's is that he likes to distort images by neglecting to show scale. Therefore, I am trying to avoid having an objects in my shots such as cars or people, that show scale.

Amalgamation

Below are my two versions of amalgamations based off of work from Nancy Burson. I ran in quite a few difficulties with these works. First, I'm brand new to photoshop and had a lot of trouble navigating through all the tools.  For my Nancy Burton style amalgamation, I really struggled with aligning the portraits on top of each other. Everyone's face structure is different and it's hard to make the facial features line up, specifically the eyes. I also struggled with choosing the right opacity. I didn't want one image to be stronger than the other because then you couldn't see features from all the portraits. For my free-style amalgamation, I had trouble cropping the images to fit all six portraits in the frame. I was also difficult to vertically align the heads. However, I'd say my photoshop skills have improved from this project. Free-style amalgamation Nancy Burson Amalgamation
