My Photography

This is my poster that I made when i took pictures of the Fallen shoes. I took a picture and cropped it out on photoshop then placed it on a blank white page. I also cut out the other images and then write the words at the bottom. My work links with my artist because he takes pictures of skateboarding items and people, which is what ive just done.

Bryce Kanights Photography

Bryce Kanights is a skateboarding photographer who normally takes pictures for top magazines such as Thrasher and SkateboardingMagazineUK.

He can find very good spaces to take pictures from which angles look good and are very effective, which why he is one of the best photographers around. He has been taking photographs for around 10 years and said he really enjoys it, and gives him a fantastic experience.

Exisiting Adverts

This advert is for the 2011 Etnies commercial, which is filmed by Nick Garcia and Andrew Brophy. Sean Malto the main skateboarders in the advert. This is a picture of the advert, where the small logo on the right hand side, which says what company it is. There is also a picture of Malto doing a trick off the ledge, which suggests to people that if you wear the new Etnies, then you'll be able to do these trick. The writing on the left hand side is also effective because it attracts people to look at the advert because it says the skaters name, and Sean Malto is a well known skateboarder so people will most likely look at the advert.

This is also the same advert, but a different picture of it, and it is still good because it has the company logo but its not as effective as the first advert picturebecause it doesnt say the skateboarders name.

Exisiting Government Eating Campaign

5 A Day Campaign

The 5-A-Day campaign was first developed in 2002, by the Department of Health was introduced to try and make the UK residents eat more than five portions a day. An average UK person eats around three portions a day, whereas the campaign are trying to get people to eat five a day. It is recommened that you eat around 2-3 fruit a day, a few dry raisins, one medium apple, orange or banana and a healthy drink such as a smoothie.

To help you keep a record of the things you have ate this week, you can make a diary to show how many vegetables, fruits and drinks you have per week. Another way to keep a track of it is that you tick five boxes per day, or colour them in which will help you keep up to how many portions you have ate in that day. You are supposed to eat around 80 grams of fruit/veg per day and maybe a drink that is 100 percent in Vitamin C etc...

Jamie Oliver

Jamie Oliver first became a chef when he left school, which intrested him in healthy eating and the italian side of food. He was concerned about schools not eating healthy, so he decided to write serveral books on the subject, before airing in his first TV Show, "Jamies School Dinners". He was worried that too many children in the UK were becoming obese, and he wanted to do something about it. This encourged a massive amount of the population in the UK to start eating more healthy and different ways you can eat them aswell. He also did alot of charity work aswell helping people eat healthy, which made him become No.1 chef in the UK, putting leading chef Gordon Ramsey in second place. Travelling to different places of the UK, Jamie Oliver has become a role model to many young students, encourging them to a healthy lifestyle.

I am going to link my campaign with these two, because i will discuss  healthy eating and making a eye-catchy logo.

STUDIO EQUIPMENT

This is a high quality light
which can be used for side lighting of the model. You have to make sure that the light is in the right position because if it is getting blocked in any way then it will overheat.


This is a white background
which is used for models, usually giving off a good effect to bright colours.

This is another
white background.

This is a
turbo windtunnel to create a windy effect. This however can also be dangerous because if the wind is on high then it could cause danger for people around it. Also make sure you don't put your fingers in there.

These are lightbulbs
that are used for the top notch lighting in our studio. You also have to be safe with these because they can very easily overheat if using them constantly.

This is a black background used
in the studio which is usually used for dark colours and creating darker pictures.

This is a
picture from the black background effecting the lighting, using one of the lights above.
