Treatment Photography

Treatment Photography

1. Type of production and brief details on Subject/Concept:

My idea was Motion, I want to capture things in motion, one idea I had was to get Sparkless and write something and catch it in motion. I choose this because I thought its the most interesting out of them.

2. Facilities: What facilities do you need for this project list all including software and hardware for the whole project

I will need a camera, a tripod, (dolly possibly), someone to help me with the skills to go into the photo, photoshop most likely.
The places I wanted to do it was Crawley Skate Park, Night time in my back garden with the sparkless, Catching a car or motor bike in motion. If you understand what I mean I'm picking up on idea's from there. In some case's it will be about being there at the right time.


3. Finance: If you produced this project outside of the college you need to show how much would it cost to hire the equipment that you intend to use.

Camera - £1,098,99p
Tripod - £69.99p
Dolly - £129.99p
Photo shop - £643.90p
Crew (friends) - £0
In total thats £1,942.96

4. Contributors: Who do you need to help this for you project? This includes talent and crew.

I would need my friends help, also random skater boys if I can't find any friend to do it.
Crew would be friends to.



5. Codes of practice and regulation: What regulations to you need to be aware of. Think about college policy as well as regulatory bodies that you looked at in assignment 2, Worksheet 1.6 Regulation and Safety notes

I would have to get written permisson to take any photo's of anyone who is under the age of 16, also would have to contact the council to make sure I was allowed to take pictures in that public area.


6. Presentation: How will you present the pictures? Will you include a soundtrack, think about copy write issues etc.

I would make them into a movie on movie maker including music more likely but to avoid copy right issues I would use songs I've brought of iTunes because I know if I was to take a song of a CD I'm stealing, but where I buy my songs from iTunes I'm buying the rights to the song.

1.Note differences and Similarities between Digital and Film





Differences

Digital can be proccessed in minutes (on a camera, computer and the Machines you get in the shops where you stick a memory card into it), where's Film can take upto 2 day to process. As you know film cannot be expossed to light if it is then you cannot get it developed, it is light senitive where's digital isn't.

Another difference is that film cames on reel and need chemicals to process it

But

Digital is digital done with a camera.

Simialrites
They both take still images.



2. Note and Discuss the file formats
JPEG - The computer crushes the image to as small as it can thats why some JPEG photo's don't come out as planed..
RAW File - The puretest form, its be untouched nothing has been done to it. RAW files is also the biggest form.
BMP file - is an uncompressed file image pixels are stored with a color depth of 1, 4, 8, 16, 24, or 32 bits per pixel.


3. Compare Image quality
RAW file is the best quailty you can get for a photo! Its purest form, untouched if you were to import it onto Photo Shop and then save it your chances are the computer will change the format of the Picture to JPEG.


JPEG file is not the best quality picture you can get. Its a crushed file when I say crushed I mean the computer have compressed the file to a smaller form so it won't take up so much space.


Comparing RAW file to JPEG, BMP File RAW file is the best quailty but the biggest. Where JPEG is tiny compared to RAW files.






4. Discuss Pixel rates
The higer the Pixels one a camera the better the image is going to be.
If you have a 3.5 Mega Pixels camera the pictures are not going to be the best in the world! If you have 12 mega Pixel camera you're photos are going to be in far better quailty then the lower Pixel rates. If you look at a photo carefully enough you see tiny little square their the pixels if you can see a more then you should that means that the camera has a low Pixel Rate.

Art Photography

Applications
The word art simply means to be 'beauty, texture, colour, print and design'
Examples:
I was unable to find any examples on the Unversity of Brighton Website, of the work I liked.
Also in the Bright Museum & Art Gallery which were a shame, because I really liked some of the work in both Galleries. I also do not remember any of there names - its disappointing because I would of loved to show you have amazing it was.
Conceptual Photography
is basically genre in which the artists makes a photograph of a concept or idea. Conceptual photography usually involves computer editing and the desired effect.
Today 2 galleries I really liked, I really liked the unversity one - I liked the detail to some of the photo's partically the black and white ones I thought they were far better then the colour photos. Reason for this is just I think black and white photo's look more tradional then those in colour. Some photo's today didn't mean that much, where others did. For example one of the landscape pictures in 'Fabrica' It was of a family of 3 looking happy ish. I thought it meant alot as it was a family and came across as well done. ' It was also in black and white'

No, none of them appear in different styles of photography.



Context

Art photograpghy basically contains many different things; such as texture, quaility, style, colour so many things. The surroundings can very aswell, some people look beyond the pictures meaning like if i was to take a photo of a lamp with some many different things in the background people would look beyond the lamp because they'd wanna see other things in this photo.



Techniques

The techniques are something that every photographer/artist use to get the style and look achivered within that photograph/painting. The artist sets out to portray an image he or she likes and uses in modern, abstract, contempoiary, vintage themes to achieve what is beauty to the eye. The tones of the picture very in many ways - for example: Distance, Sephia, Brush/Strokes, lightness and darkness - featured beyond the object in front of the audience.

Portraiture

Application
Portraiture photography is often used to expressive the likeness personality and even the mood of the photography. A portraiture photo is often not a snapshot, but used to created an image of a person in a still position. A portrait often shows a person looking directly at the camera. Most of the photography try to capture an expression that werent on the camera, unlike in the 60's when the rich wants there expression to be shown on the camera so they'd pull a look on - instead of making it look natural.

Richard Avendon tends to do black and white photo's none really colour. His photo's show emotions and natural side of the people in them. None really look afticially done. Richards fashion and portrait photographs helped define America's image of style, beauty and culture for the last half-century.

Context
Portraiture is used in our everyday lives, companies often used portraiture to advertise on such as: Leaflet, posters, bulltinboards, newspapers, magazines one of the biggest use's of portraiture would be either magazines and the internet. I think some companies tend to use portraiture a bit more then landscape because if your publishing you poster or printed advert on paper in a magazine or online or a newpaper, it doesn't take up so much space compared to landscape. Which in some case's can take up the who 2 pages (In magazines, newspaper).
Money has the the queens head on it as well as bank notes. Business's use them to brand there products so people are aware it's from their company and no one else's.


Techniques
TEXTURE plays a big part.
If texture is a big part of your subject, make it stand out and make it obvious. Match up the textures between your subject and your background. You might even try texturizing the entire photo for additional impact.
In the begining of portraiture it was often used for the royal family, they got to pick the senerare of the photo, the clothing and jewerlly. They often wore alot of accessories such a gold more than silver, crowns etc. Anything that had a high price tag they'd wear - to show show people who were viewing the photo that that they had the power and the money also, to have an affect on the portrait. During the mid 60's photographer would just walk down an old street and try and capture an unquie portraiture image.

Fashon Photography

Introduction to Fashion Photograpghy

Applications
Fashion photograpghy has been around for a long time since 1830. It first appeared in a french magazine. it first got into grips in 1856 where Adolphe Braun published a book containing 288 photo's of Virginia Oldoini, Countess di Castiglione, a Tuscan noblewoman at the court of Napoleon III. The photos depict her in her official court garb, making her the first fashion model. Fashion photography is all about trying to sell a style to you not the clothing.

Toni Frissels photo's
I think Toni photo's are very old style, some are rather odd too. Like an odd one, Two nuns are walking through deep water - i think is image is very odd. Another thing I've noticed about Toni work is he liks taking pictures and adding the underwater look. Whether this pictures have been taken under water - with an underwater camera I don't know but the effect and texture of them are queit mind blowing.
In this image is: I am unable to find their name. Source Google images under Toni Frissell.

Willy Maywaid
Willy Maywald grew up in Cleves and attended from 1928 to 1931, the Berlin school of art of the West ". Then he went to Paris, where he became independent in 1933 and offered his first work illustrated magazines. .
His photography is mostly in black and white - which is good because I think if a photo is in black white you see much more and its more attractive.
In this photo is: Lisa Fonssagrives. Source Google Images.
Here is an example of his work.

Ruth Harriet Louise
Ruth Harriet Louise (born Ruth Goldstein) (January 13, 1903 - 1940) was an American professional photographer, the first woman photographer active in Hollywood; she ran Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's portrait studio from 1925 to 1930. When Louise was hired by M.G.M. as chief portrait photographer in the summer of 1925, she was twenty-two years old, and the only woman working as a portrait photographer for the Hollywood studios. In a career that lasted only five years, Louise photographed all the stars, contract players, and many of the hopefuls who passed through the studio's front gates, including Greta Garbo, Lon Chaney, John Gilbert, Joan Crawford, Marion Davies, and Norma Shearer. It is estimated that she took more than 100,000 photos during her tenure at MGM. Today she is considered an equal with George Hurrell Sr. and other renowned glamour photographers of the era.

Techniques:
Fashion techniques are the way the fashion photography does things. Each fasion photography has their own techniques, maybe a few are the same but about 75% of the time there not. In fashion photo's are often maipulatized, they often do this for many different reason some can be to make the model look thinner, sexier, to make something bigger or smaller e.g. eyes, lips, nose. Anything they think looks out of place they will change and make it look better. A lot of work goes into fashion manipulation, it can take hours just to change that one image - not all images are but most of the time they are! -

Content
Fashion photography appears everywhere, e.g. magazines, newspapers, bus stops, the internet so many places! Fashion can obviously have a big impact on people, everyone follows fashion celebraitys and the normal avarge people. If a normal person on the street see's a celeb wearing a certain outfit, that person would want to buy it because they've seen someone famous wearing it. They think its fashionable. Fashion photography is used in our everyday lives, it doesn't have to be used in a top photo shoot. Can be used in just posing in pictures with friends but looking good and wearing the right outfit. Thats what fashion photography is.

Photo Journalism

Application, Context and Techniques

These headings will help you when you are writing up you class notes. Please use your own words when working on this and do not just copy text from other sources. If you do copy text you must correctly label where you got the information from.

Application
Under application it is important to discuss the history of this type of photography and to use examples form past and present.
Where there any major dates or events that moved this style forwards?
Are there any individual people that have influenced this type of photography?

In history there was major dates and events when the style was moved forwards like for example January 1925 when the Leica was launched . Photo Journalism was discovered in the early 20th century. In 1933 the photo taken of the man jumping over the puddle was describe as the best photo in the 20th century.
One important individual was Henri Cartier Bresson, he was the one who made Decisive monent trendy. Particular the image with man jumping over the puddle as shown below

Context
Under the context section list and describe each of the contexts that we the audience consume this style of image. Context is the way the photographs are displayed for example fashion photographs are displayed in magazines as well as billboards. It is important when discussing this section that you mention important changes for each context through history.

Photo journalism was there to show the true side of the war (the reality of it) Capa went out and took photo's of the war. Tony Vaccaro also took photo's of the war, he carried his camera around his neck, and his gun on this left hand shoulder. So if he needed to fight he could at the same time he could easily take some photo's if possible. Tony's picture were destoryed as they contained images of dead soldiers. Although capa's photo's were desting for the top US magazines and newspapers. The difference between Capa's and Tony's work was Tony's stuff contained (gory) dead people, the reality side. Capa's did more of the decisive moments.

Techniques
Are there any techniques utilised to create images of this type? For example the way the picture is Taken, Processed, Displayed or manufactured?
How has the change in technology through history altered or changed the way that photographs of this style are produced?

I don't think there was any techniques used to create this images. I think it was all about being there at the right time. All about luck being on you're side, well not so much. But some of it.
The way technology has changed i think it's had a big impact on photographs. Like the way you can easily edit and picture on a e.g camera phone, home laptop etc. I think it's changed for the better. I don't think the way photo's are produced has changed really.

Intro into Photography

I want to achieve a good grade in photograhy and learn alot about pictures and how they stand out and how you can edit them to look unique in such a way.
I would also like to take more then one in black and white as i feel pictures look and seem more attractive with the oldern day look.
