Hellooooooo! I'm finally back to the blog now to write about my second assignment of POD (Principles Of Design). :p
My second assignment is about cropping and composition. We were told to choose one subject matter and I chose "Textures and Patterns" by cropping on walls, floors, tiles and more. Before our lecturer, Miss Lisa gave this assignment to us, she explained about composition of an image. That day, we also get to cut a mounting board in order to make a frame. This is because we needed to use a frame to crop and compose our photo shots. Basically the frame is our view finder and cropping tool for this assignment.
For the tutorial, we were required to shoot 50 shots at minimum and choose 30 of them only after showing our lecturer, Miss Lisa. We also needed to make our own videos of the pictures we took! :o
I took some pictures from the campus but it wasn't enough so I decided to go to Sunway Pyramid for more shots with my friends. We walked almost everywhere in there with the frame on our hands. It was so awkward hahahaha. Although I am not very sure that were there anyone looking at me, but I can feel them looking at me xD. After that, I started to make the video. Although it was my first time making a video but it wasn't that hard, it only takes time.
At first I thought my subject matter is boring because it didn't have any story like the others and mine are just plain patterns and textures :/ But at least Miss Lisa said she likes it hahahaha. From this assignment, I've learned a lot about composition and the way to crop because different placements give different effects and styles. And also.. I mastered the skill on how to hold the frame properly hahahaha it was very hard to hold the frame straight while taking pictures. :|
These are some of the pictures and the video I made for the presentation.
My video :D
