Lo3: KTA 3: Structure of images

The theme of my work with the title Creative & Digital Sheffield was to illuminate street style and art. I used models in my 10 final images to represent the scale of the street art in Sheffied. My two models had very different styles in their appearance; one very Classic and Simple, one Boho and Vintage. This was important in my work to illustrate the contrasting fashion of Sheffield. Minimal directing was used for their positioning in the images, i wanted to capture the natural behaviour of my models so i let them arrange themselves as i wanted them to feel comfortable in front of the camera.

I didn't edit this photo because i thought the natural light made the brightness and i liked how the graffiti look as though it was looking over the people. Also the colour of the graffiti against the wall works really well so i thought it would be best not to change the curves. 

To improve this image i think i should of retaken the photo so that the sunlight didn't cut off the top right corner of the graffiti. However i like how the sunlight makes the colours on the wall really bright and radiant.  I think the depth of field needs improving because the model at the back isn't in focus and isn't very clear. I chose not to edit this photo though because i really liked how the graffiti is darker at one side and gets brighter and when i tried to make the brightness on the models face darker it didn't look visually appealing.

I edited this image to make the brightness more, even though the light on the models face is very bright i needed to make the brightness higher so that the graffiti was clearer. 

As i already have a photo of this graffiti, i chose not to edit it so that the viewer can see the colours of the graffiti and when u display my images i will put this one along side the image including the same background. I could of edited this image to make the models contrast the background. However i couldn't have taken the photo closer up to make the people clearer because i needed to capture all of the art along the wall.  

I did not edit this image because i thought the lighting worked well illuminating the bright colours of the art on the wall and the coat my model wears contrasts the colours on the wall.

Street Art & Architecture

All around Sheffield there are different types of street art. The street art changes at different times of the year, for example the images get scarier at Halloween. When travelling through Sheffield you will always see a piece of street art which makes it an essential part of the Sheffield experience. 

For my photos to capture the Creative and Digital Sheffield i want to get all different aspects of the art, where it is used for advertisement, protest or just expression in art. 

The style of the street art is unique to Sheffield because of the textures which the art is done on, for instance the majority of sheffield buildings are stone walls and there are few buildings (except the newest ones) that are not just brick on the outside which makes the art work urban.

I will edit the photos when needed on Photoshop, also i will have people in my images to show the size of the art and how the art is easily accessible by the public. 

To show the digital side of Sheffield i would look for the architecture in Sheffield, for example there are many buildings which have great digital examples of creativeness such as the Crucible Theatre and the fountains at the Train Station.
