Academic Shoot Critique and Reflection
1. Finding the examples in the classroom was a challenge for me. I saw great photo opportunities, but actually incorporating the photo rules was challenging. For example, I saw a biology class doing a scientific lab and I had to try to include certain rules like balance, rule of thirds, simplicity, etc into the action shots. I had to think when taking my pictures and process what I was doing.
2. My camera did not cut focus, so I specifically had to manually focus every time. For example, when I was taking a photo of a girl standing in a doorway I had to focus the photo very well so the photo was clear. I also had to adjust my position to make sure the lighting wasn't too bright or too dim.
3. I would avoid mergers. In many of my photos, people's heads looked like trees or other people were popping out of them.
4. I would shoot in the same areas because I had many good action shots and opportunities! :)
5. I think rule of thirds will be the easiest rule to achieve because I would just have to change my own position to make the subject on the use of thirds grid.
6. I think simplicity is the hardest rule to capture when in a public place because there are many things going on at all times, and it is hard to find a simple background in crowds of people, items and buildings.
7. I am still not totally clear on the avoiding merger rule. I say this because sometimes it is hard for me to classify what counts as a merger or not. I can research mergers and read over our photo rules power point again to clarify my misunderstanding.
