Photography workshop

24/10/15

In today's photography workshop we started started by looking through different images of paper sculptures made by professional artists. Then using a craft knife, a cutting mat and a sheet of paper we started making our own paper sculptures to use to take photographs of. I tried making a sculpture made up of cylinder tunes taped together but I didn't feel it looked good so I restarted. I then tried to make a swan instead. But this was not finished in time so I used my paper sculpture I made last Thursday in my sketchbook to take photos of. 

We than placed each sculpture onto a product table with a reflector dish placed behind to give off light. A beauty dish was placed in front of the product table to give light from that direction too. This light was moved around to give off different shadowing effects. While taking photos of the sculptures we changed the ISO settings to change the colours and effects of the photographs taken.
