Depth (5 each: leading line, repetition, depth staging)
For this project, we were instructed to create photographs that demonstrated depth. We used three techniques to show depth: leading line, repetition and depth staging. A leading line draws the eye into the image by have the subject wind from the front to the back of the photo. An example of this technique is river that moves from the front of the photograph to the back. Repetition is another method for creating depth. Repetition repeats the subject or subjects over and over. The repetition fills up the frame of the photograph. It creates depth by making things in the distance look smaller. Finally, depth staging uses two subjects in order to create a visual that there is space between them. The space creates depth in the photograph.
Leading Line
Repetition
Depth Staging
In all of these photos depth is well represented. The strategies are used well to give a feeling of depth. Some of leading lines photos do not have a clear line going across the entirety of the image. Cropping might help those photos have a clearer line.
ReplyDeleteHowdy Malia! You show deep understanding of depth in your artist statement and it's executed in your photo series this week. I see that you were able to do so while staying within the bounds of Drew (with exception for that cute dog in the last photo) which is resourceful. It is good for a photographer to be able to make with what they've got. Nice job this week!
ReplyDeleteJust like the last set of photos you demonstrate the eye for photography that you have. I think you got very creative and interesting with the depth staging and how each of those shots are set up. You also did an amazing job with editing the first leading lines photo. It's dark enough but not too dark to be unable to see anything.
