ASSIGNMENT ONE

“SILENT OBSERVING”

CHALLENGE:
CREATE A SET OF 20 PHOTOS OF A SUBJECT OBSERVING THE LOCATION. FOCUS ON WHAT “SILENT” REALLY FEELS LIKE.

COLOR THEME:
LET’S HAVE A BLUE CLOTHING ITEM IN THIS CHALLENGE.

STYLING:
BLUE IS KNOWN AS A CALMING COLOR, SO FOCUS THE STYLING ON THE COLOR BLUE. PICK A SHADE THAT WILL POP WITH THE LOCATION.

LOCATION:
SOMEWHERE YOU ENJOY THE SILENCE.

SHOOTING:
SILENCE CAN MEAN SOFT, SO DEFINITELY TRY SOME FREELENSING AND SHOOTING WIDE OPEN. HOWEVER, TRY SOME HIGHER APERTURES TO MAKE THE LOCATION A BIG PART OF THE FEELING OF SILENCE.

EDITING:
MAYBE TRY EDITING THESE IN A WAY THAT FEELS CALM TO YOU. SOFT, LOW CONTRAST, PASTEL TONES?

GOAL:
THIS ASSIGNMENT IS SIMPLE IN THE FACT THAT YOU INCLUDED IN YOUR INSPIRATION HOMEWORK THE words,
“I am most inspired when I am away from everyone and in silence observing the world around me. The others are connection, and calm…..”
so, let’s focus on that! art imitates life, so your work should reflect who you are! it’s time to make it happen.
