Photography Practice

As we had learnt all about photography and how images portray meanings, we also learnt about framing an image. We learnt that when taking an image, we should imagine that it is split into a grid containing 9 squares. We learnt that we should always try and get the model in the centre of the grid to show clearly who or what the meaning of the image is. This helped us then to go on and take our own images of all the different shot sizes and angles that we have learnt about, also using the grid supplied on the iPad camera. By trying out photography myself and trying to get a perfect image of all the shot sizes and angles, I realised how difficult it is from the photographers point of view to show a clear motivation or meaning of a camera just by positioning the model. This photography exercise gave me some photography experience and something to think about and consider when taking my own photos for my magazine. Here the images we captured of all the different shot angles and sizes:
