Final Exam


4. Throughout the year I took a couple hundred photos for this class. My transformative photo would have to be one of my pictures from the Inspired by a Master project we did in the beginning of the school year. This image was taken at a time when I knew very little about photography or had any substantial experience. It is my transformative photo because I learned the basics of photography and after I was able to capture this image I began taking much better photos.















5. The difference between shape and form is that they're dimensions are different. Shapes are in 2D while form is a shape in 3D. Shapes have width and length and usually have clear and defined borders such as a poster or painting. Form on the other hand, has width, length, and also height. Examples of form are sculptures and metal works.

6. Pattern is a combination of elements or shapes repeated in a recurring arrangement. Repetition is the repeated use of a shape, color, or other element of art or design in a work that unifies different parts as a whole.

8.My best work to date
This is my best work so far because I have never taken higher quality photos than the ones included in this project. The main thing that I learned from this project was the importance of good lighting. I was given the opportunity to use a soft box and a small photography box that acted as a studio and backdrop. The results were amazing and better than anything I've taken before. This project changed me because before I would focus on the subject I wanted to take a picture of and paid little attention to other variables such as lighting. This project taught me that there are very technical variables in photography that affects the resulting photograph significantly.
