Refection
This week me and my group were helping with photos but i think we were helping a little too much. We on actuant messed up someone's photo and they made use the point of hate in the class no one wanted us to help with their photos and we got butt hurt then we got mad because people on our team started talking shit and we messed up and with messing up that's the whole point in project based learning. Andrew 1. THE PHOTO The original photo matters because of it's not hight quality to begin with, it never will be. You want to have the highest quality and most beautiful picture you can get. You want something that would be good without the next three steps but great with them. Everything from the framing, to the balance, to the contrast should be top notch. 2. PROCESSING IN PHOTOSHOP This is important to make sure your photo is in its best form before print. You want to make sure all the details are taken care of, so that it's smooth sailing from here. Honestly, after this step, the hard work is done. You want to make sure to De-noise the photo to get rid of any pixelation, and to make sure your saturation, contrast, vibrance, and brightness are what you want. Once that's done, you do the necessary editing for the metallic photo paper, which usually includes balancing the red in the photo and turning down the contrast. 3. METALLIC PHOTO PAPER This paper adds extra dimension and wow factor to your photo. The sheen of the paper makes the photo look more smooth and professional. It especially brings out bright colors and highlights, making them look brighter and clearer and overall nicer. The paper is kind of expensive, but it just give our photos another layer of beauty and uniqueness. 4. EPOXY TOP COAt Epoxy serves many purposes. It makes it look more clean and put together, as well as adds depth to the photo. It reduces glare and give more opportunity to see the photo as it truly is, and it resists sun damage. It's truly a perfect addition to our photos. Not only does it make the photo look even better, which is hard to do at that point, it gives the protects the photo and gives it longevity. This is a perfect selling point, but also it's good to have insurance that all the layers of hard work put into the photo will stick around. Mike Each step of the process involves light in a very different way, light also reacts differently to your picture depending which step of the process you are on. When you are taking your picture, it is important to take into consideration the time of day, so you can take it during your ideal hours of light. Sunset and sunrise. These times provide the best light because the sun is low in the sky, emitting a soft, diffused light that produces better pictures than the harsher sunlight. When taking the photo you also need to take into consideration that when you process and print your photo, that part of the process depends heavily on what the lighting is in the photo and what the light is focused on. When processing you need to take the brightness up or down and make adjustments to get the light to translate how you want it when you print. Once you print the photo, you need to mount it and then cover it in resin. Light reacts to resin in a unique way. It adds depth to your photo. It does this because the light goes through the resin and bounces off the picture back out of the resin, but every time it does that some of the light bounces back off the surface of the resin back onto the picture, creating a loop of light. Light is also plays another role in the resin process. When we look into the glare of the photo we are able to see dust and anything else that made its way into our photos and are able to remove them. We also use the glare when we are blow torching the picture to make sure that we pop all of the air bubbles There is a certain pride that only comes when you exhibit your work for other people to see. Framing a piece of art that you made, making it look better, gives you a feeling of accomplishment. When you put your work out into the open for people to look at and critique, it can help make you and your work better.
