Lincoln Shoot












Went to Lincoln this week to see my friend Dale, and of course I couldnt resist taking my camera along with me. Most of these photos have been subitally edited, exept the solo candle, which is the origional image. I loved the candels and how they glow, definatly something I'll be experimenting with at some point in the future.

Yorkshire Sculpture Park




One of our first year projects was to design products a 'club' for our own chosen target audience for the yorkshire sculpture park. We were also asked to design products for these target audiences. We initially chose ours as children and there parents for family days out at the park. The project was a group project, and honestly we didnt communicate too effectivly and ended up with a lot of our designs more towards the adults rather than the children. I designed the pieces above, an advertisement for the day, an invite, a point of sale for sketch books we had to design and a press release. I took on more of an advertisers role for the project even though I'm a graphic designer but it gave me more of an insight into the advertising side and i quiet like my invite and advert designs :)

Clay

My first attempt at using clay, sorry the photos arnt the best, the camera didnt like me and i wasnt in the mood to keep trying for a good photo cos you can get the general idea from these :)
The elephant at the bottom was hard to make, bits didnt want to stick together no matter what i did, this resulted in one of the ears falling off as soon as i tried to paint it and the clay just decided it didnt want to be an elephant.
Altogether not too bad for my first attempt :)



Fisheye

Thanks to one of my lovely followers I now have the black circle i was missing. would still love to get my hands on a proper lens though :)

Fisheye Effect

Im desperate for a fisheye lens for my camera but seen as theyre definatly not cheap i decided id experiment with photoshop effects to see what i can do. I like how its distorted the image but i much prefer it when its shot with a lens and you get half the image cut out because of the lens, the circular effect round the edges, but i guess this will have to do for now. let me know what you think :)
