My Response to ALANA DEE HAYNE's work
My Response Plan
To respond to the work of Alana dee Haynes , I intend to take and edit photos in Photoshop .
My work will link to my artist because I will also project patterns onto my model.
I will need Laibah to pose some looking at the camera and some not however she will not smile but be sad and serious and anger at the world. I used her as she is a women like my artist models and has long straight hair similar to my artists.
The equipment I need will be DSLR camera and studio light and a projector. I took my photos close up and make sure it was steady.
I took my photos behind a white background with a lot of space and not a lot of natural light as it wont properly project all the patterns onto the face of the model and the background.
I will include the compositional rules and formal elements of lines, focus, shapes and form.
This will link to my theme by how sad and anger she is towards the loneliness and hatred.

My Raw photographs
13 unedited photographs OR your raw filmed clips (no need to do 13!)













My Three Photoshop Edits



To edit my photo of ___ I opened it in Adobe Photoshop and [What Photoshop tools did you use and why? E.g. I cropped it so that the focal point of the work was the chips themselves and so that I didn't have as much negative space. I then increased the saturation and vibrance to bring out the yellows in the chips and the colours in the burger, in the style of my photographer. I increased the brightness and contrast of the image as well to replicate the look of it being taken with a flash. I then added noise to give it a grainy, film-like look to make it feel more nostalgic.]
To edit the ___ photo I opened it in Adobe Photoshop and [What Photoshop tools did you use and why? E.g. I cropped it so that the teapot was centralised and I increased the vibrance and saturation to make the colours bolder, like my photographer does.]
For the ___ photo, I opened it in Adobe Photoshop and... [What Photoshop tools did you use and why? E.g. I cropped it so that the sign was in the top Third of the Rule of Thirds so that the viewer's eye was led to it. I then increased the saturation to emphasize the colours and added grain.]
Which edit do you feel has been the most successful and why (link this to your photographers and theme)?
