Tuesday, 4 May 2010Creative Media And Art
today in creative media we went over to room 915. before the lesson started we wrote a checklist on what we should already have in our folders. after that we looked at a slide show about photography and what types of angles and shots that we could use for our work. we looked at many types of photgraphy that we could use, for example we can use Black And White photography. we looked at many things that we could use to give a photograph a meaning. we saw that we could use reflection for our photographs .

after that we continued with our ideas for a photography. we had to come up with 6 different ideas for our work. after we finished our ideas and the description of the images , we had to put them on a story board that would make it easier for us to understand.



today in creative art we were in room 925. when we got inside the class immediately we start on our work that we started last week which was the reasearch on John Heartfield and other artists. after we finished that we decided to either draw one of your own or do a collage on it. then we started to think of what sort of Human Rights Image that we could use for our photo montarge. we had options that we could choose from such as Child Labour, Child Labour, Homosexuality and many more. we had to find images on them to represent the topic.

Art : we looked at photo Montage and researched a few artists and looked at their work. they were mostly based during the time of world war two 1939 to 1945(Hitler's era).
we had to research some images of their work to help us with our own montages. We stuck them to our books and analysed them.

Media: we discused our ideas of the research homework that we were given last week and compare it and analyse it.
After we were given a task to pick 6 topics that we would like to focus our Photography on, such as eqaulity and child labour.
we had to come up with positions that we would focus on to get the message across to the viewers.

Today in creative and media diploma we went to the studio to take some pictures. we had to think of different light techniques and positions that we can put up. we learnt how to create a shadow with lights and make parts of faces disappear in the dark. then we went into the dark room to see how we can transform a picture from a piece of paper into a black and white picture on a film.


Later in the day we had art which we had to conclude in our montage work. we had to finish of all our work on our chosen topics such as homosexuality. we had to either do a collage or a painting using paints, oil pastels or colouring pencils to finish your own copy of your chosen picture which best suits your topic.

Firstly we all met in 915 to introduce the Human Rights Media element. We looked at photos, found out more about human rights and the tasks set, such as comparing our lives to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights list. We then divided up students into photography and film.

We discussed which ones we liked and why and had a think about photographs we could take.
