Major Project TERM II - Post-production

Below you can view my editing process of all of the photos I took for the major project assignment. I edited them in Adobe Photoshop for iPad and for Mac and colour corrected in Adobe Lightroom. 

My editing process can be viewed, with my commentary of what I am doing step by step, in the videos attached below.

THOUGHTS

Raw photo:

While this photo was difficult to shoot, it was quite easy to edit. Only thing I did in terms of editing was colour grade it.

Below you can view the entire editing process with my commentary:

The final outcome will be posted in the separate post.

EMOTIONS

Raw photos:
Because I was pleased with how the photographs come out straight from the camera, with this beautiful side key light, editing process was also straightforward.

DREAMS

Raw photo:

This was a bit more difficult to edit, but thanks to the practical lighting I did not have to add any fake lights in the post. During editing this photograph I changed the conception a bit. I couldn't find the good beam of light photo on the stock image websites that would fit the photograph therefore I decided to experiment a little and do something different. I think it worked better than the original idea.

AGEING

Raw photo:

This process was also straightforward, mainly thanks to how well the neural filters worked out.

DEATH

Raw photo:

Similarly to the thoughts, I did not have to do anything drastic with this photograph. I only colour graded it in Lightroom.

MEMORIES

Raw photo:

Definitely the hardest photo to edit. I got lost in the amount of layers a few times, but I think that the final artwork ended up pretty good.

The final images with my reflections about them will be published in the separate post.

Major Project TERM III - Dream sequences in film Research

Image
In the last part of my research connected to this term's major project I will be looking closely into different dream sequences in cinema. I will analyse how different filmmakers are visualizing them in their own visual style. I will be looking at four films in which we can either see a dream sequence or the majority of the film is a dream. The four films being, ' Spellbound ' (1945) directed by Alfred Hitchcock, ' Inception ' (2010) made by Christopher Nolan, ' Anima ' (2019) created by Paul Thomas Anderson, and finally ' Wild Strawberries ' (1957) directed by Ingmar Bergman. Spellbound (1945) Directed by Alfred Hitchcock Spellbound (1945) dream sequence Probably the most recognizable dream sequence in film history, and for good reason. The scenography created for this sequence was done by Salvador Dalí, Spanish surrealist artist whose one of a kind visual style can be easily recognized in every frame of this scene.  While the style does not appeal...

Sequential Photography - research, study, and final artwork

Image
You could say that the origin of sequential photography, as important by itself, is also the origin of cinema. Not the Lumière brothers, but Eadweard Muybridge can be recognized as a pioneer of film. Edweard Muybridge was an English photographer. His fame started when in 1868 Eadweard photographed Yosemite Valley in California, but today he is famous for initiating a new photography trend which is our today's topic. Sequential Photography 1 Sequential imagery is a photographic technique of taking many following pictures in a short period of time. It can be used for a variety of reasons, ranging from showing movement of someone or something to telling a compelling story. An actual origin story of the pictures above is interesting in itself. Eadweard Muybridge wanted to prove his friend that horses during gallop are pulling or their legs at the same time. Because of this trivial bet we now can enjoy films and TV series. Sequential photography 2 First set of my sequential photos I too...

Major Project TERM III - Production and Post-production PART I

Image
As of now I completed three days of shooting, and shot around 30%-35% of the needed footage. It takes more time than I anticipated but I think I will finish everything on time. I cannot really shoot outside during the weekend since there is a lot of people on the streets at night during these days, so I have to go out during the weekdays. It slows the production a bit since now I have most of the interior shots done, so the only things I need to shoot are outside. I also understood quickly that making everything by myself is far more difficult and complicated than I anticipated. There are some shots which I imagined in my mind that are not looking as good when I shoot it. Nevertheless, focusing on the positive I have finished shooting and editing first page of the script. The entire editing process with the actual edited part of the film at the end. You can view it here. This part ranges from the beginning of the script to the first scene on the second page. Shooting around one to thre...
