Triptych - inspiration from home

I didn't know what to do for this project so  I randomly took pictures of things and somehow I think this works out. All of them have been rough pastle filtered and only the top one was cropped. Otherwise I played with the colours, lighting and saturation.

FRUITY

For the orange piture at the top I adjusted the sturation a bit, lightened the picture slightly, and put a filter thats name suddenly escapes me, possibly cutout. Since I had taken the picture the way I thought I would crop it I only needed to cut of the edges a bit.

For the Blue as well I didn't crop it too much only the edges were cut off slightly. I lightened the picture and adjusted the saturation. the same filter on it.

The last on Green was flipped to match the Orange one a bit better, agjusted saturationa abnd lightened photo and no need for cropping once again.

It seems fitting for the only square looking one go in the middle and the others on the outside.

All of these are from the vending machines because I was bored out of my mind and saw the blue square on the gatoraid vending machine and then since I liked that so much went to the other vending machines. To my dismay there where no squares so I just took these in hopes it would work out. An orange and a lime!

Other than that there is practically nothing in this school that is very inspriational.

PUDDLES

For all of these I played withe the hue and saturation and darkened the photos and put a filter on them (fresco). Did a little cropped them so that the stick on the top and bottom pitures where both at the corner of the page with the thought in mind that they would be the outside pictures and the big leaf would be in the middle. I liked the way the red popped out when I was doing the first picture so I decided to do it this way.

Funny for those who thought we were abusing time kindly given, infact art has to be inspired and if it is not something the artist likes then they have put no soul into their work. Sometimes its spotanious and sometimes you have to sit around and do nothing for something to come.

Multicultural Festival poster 2011...contest are anoying

It wasn't what I had originally hoped to make but I pieced this picture together keeping in mind diversity and cultures. To not single any country out and, to avoid being offensive, I coloured all these people different colours and some in the most common colours on flags (Red, Blue, Black, White, Green, Yellow). The world is placed on the maple leaf as a way to show that we are multicultural. To show the world coming to Canada and all people of different cultures coming together on their own walks of life.

 I got the idea for the earth on the flag from Futurama where their flag has earth from the earth day episode.

I'm not made for the advertisment buisness. I like things to have deep meaning and to have people think about it not only just glance get it and walk away.

Voting poster

Even though it seems logical for there to be a technology oriented or, music something that would attract the target audience our fellow students. Sometimes shock images are just as effective. I didnt want to try too hard and give them a imagine that was clearly trying to target th
em. This was the first image that popped in my mind. It can have double meaning. 1. that we actually get the oportunity to vote and can make decsions while some countries have no choice and no oportunity so end up staring out into a surpressed surounding where the people in charge are not who they would preferable chose. Since we get a choice we get to look out at a nice backyard and can decide to pick the people who were best take care of things that effect us.
2. Is that if we do vote we can probebly keep a nice life and it will hopefully benifit us greatly. If we continue to ignore it we could end up like the frame to the right. we obviously wouldnt have one or the other but just the idea that it makes it all worst if we don't vote.

Photo Journalists

With all the new technology that we have today to alter photographs it gets harder and harder to figure out if the picture is 100% true. Back in the day photographs were simple and unaltered seeking truth in the captured moment good and bad but as they were. Today's photojournalism, people can still seek, but unfortunately do it better and sneak into people’s private lives. The celebrities put themselves in a position to be stalked by cameras. Not to say that they deserve these meddlers in their lives but they are put in a world were that’s just what happens. Some even go as far to seek attention and actually want to be caught in bad behavior to make a name for themselves.
Photographers should have a bit more respect for the people they are taking a picture of. If they see someone dying they should help them and put down the camera, when and only if there is a situation in which the person in the picture is not in immediate danger the shoot can be taken to show the truths of the event. As for celebrities, It is our fault that photographers go after the bush photo's and creep around because we want to see scandalize things, and what the people we idolize are really like. If we didn't treat celebrities as gods then I would say that photographers should have some boundaries and a bit more respect. Since it is not so the only ruled I'd want to really enforce is that if the image is potentially damaging or taking the photo instead of helping them not to be done and shown.

Poetry cover

It's hands reaching a Rose because it is a break for expression (a perfect example of  arts program now) The constant struggle to be original and different and express your own art. A Rose because it makes a good image and roses symbolize beauty and can be used to convay different emotions like death, and love used in art.
