Digital Camera
Memroy stick
tripod

During this assignment i will be using the following programs:

Adobe Photoshop CS


Focus Focus Focus:

Over the past three years i have used digital camera for diffrent situations.
During making a film for my media course i used it to take production photos so i had a log of how things looked and how cameras were placed.
I have done photoshoots for bands and done live photos that have been used on bands websites and mayspace pages.

I know how important it is to make sure that the picture you take is right because you may only get one chance.
Before i take a picture i first take note of the lighting and make sure that everything is in focus.
On previous photoshoots i have taken pictures where i aim to get it out of focus so i can tell the diffrence between the two.

My photoshoot will be taking place outside, hopefully in the park area just outside lincoln as thats the main idea for my assignment.
It is a peacefull place with very good locations that i beleive if the shots are taken right will look very impressive.
I am going to take test shots of a few places before and then going to do the main shoot.
In my shoot i will be using a female model who studies fashion and she will be wearing her own designed cloths.

As stated in my ideas post i am wanting to do modeling with a bit of nature and want to get the sense of peace in the pictures.

With us having to upload 4 pictures to bigstockphoto.com i am going to take 10 pictures of each shoot area, each 10 pictures will involve diffrent angles, diffrent zoom style and diffrent postioning of the model.
With taking 10 pictures i will have plenty of choice for when i decide which picture i want to upload.
I will talk about why i used the picture in a blog post and give reasons to why i didnt use certain pictures.

Using Photoshop:
Each picture will have some form of editing, be it air brushing some things out or just making the general picture more tidy.

My plan for my lost blog is to do a video blog on the whole assignment that i will record and edit using AVID.
I plan on taking screen shots of the photo editing process and talking about each of the tools i used and what other tools i could of used.

The photoshoot is taking place this week and i am going to take test photos tuesday afternoon.
