 Artist research

I looked through book that belonged to my tutor that was full of different Photography artist's. I came across some that had some really interesting ways of layering an image which has opened my mind giving me lots of ideas. That I could layer an image in a collage form like a Dada style or even combine multiple photo together rather than have many layers stacked. I can just got for 4-6 larger layers.

I really like the colour tints on David Benjamin Sherry's photographs. Playing with colour tints is something that interests me. When I lie in the sun for a while with my eyes closed, and then open them, I get a bluish haze. Everything has a tint of blue until my eyes adjust. This is something I have been thinking about a lot. For me this is a memory, nostalgia. When I look at the effect of a disposable camera I get a nostalgic feel. It's the same with colour tints. Sherry's photo called Lemurian Morning Wood makes me think of a summer's day in the late afternoon when the sun is low and you get many yellowish mustard tones on the horizon.

1st test piece of paper cutting- Castle brief

-
Image
I want to use the vines I created on my previous page for my main piece. I wanted to create a simpler test piece to see how it will work. This link will take you to the process of my  paper cutting  for the lightbox. I am going to move forward with laser cutting my layers as it will cut the layers out alot cleaner and quicker than by me using a scalpel. I need to figure out how I will sketch up the different layers. I'm not sure how I will line up all the layers. Maybe I can use tracing paper so I can see how the layers line up.

Testing the lighting on test paper cut outs- Castle brief

 This link will take you to a video of the  test piece  and an audio annotation. Image 1- I covered the light source with white card Image 2- I covered the light source with white paper Image 3 has just the original clear plastic covering the light source I mentioned in my video that I prefer the second image, covering the light source with paper. However, under further inspection, I prefer first image, covered with card because the background looks smoother.  In the video footage you can see the ripple effect from the lighting. this is something I thought I would like but I think it is distracting and doesn't help with the illusion I am trying to create.
