Daniel's Practical- Still images

05/09/14

Dan's practical-

During our first proper practical with Dan he decided to interpret some of the work that Tom had done with us during his workshop the day before as a bit of a follow on. During the beginning of our practical Dan had us create still images but had us do them in a morphing motion to make the still images less sharp so it showed the gradual stages of the images that we we're creating. Whilst we we're doing these still images Dan tried to make us do images based on different emotions which he would tell us to do and then we would have to create a realistic still image based on that emotion. After we had done this stage, Dan decided to have us choose an emotion ourselves and then created there still images to show that emotion. Unlike the task we had done before we did not go into these still images in a morphing effect, instead we made these still images sharp and quick-changing. My first emotion I chose was frustration. I showed this emotion by using levels (sitting down on the floor with my head in my hands), frustrated facial expressions and the pulling of my hair. After we had done our three still images Dan had us change our emotion to one that was the opposite to what we had already done so I changed my emotion to happiness, again I used different levels and facial expressions to show the happiness throughout the still images that I was creating. 
Once we had done our still images Dan decided to have us blend both the still images that we had created with realism by having us pair up and create a piece by blending the two different styles. Each pair used juxtaposition (real and abstract imagery) to create a good piece.
