Week 3 - Second Evaluation of Carousel

1.          Document what you do in the session :


2.          Take notes of your experience of the following...

- The dyes came in powder form before you mix with water

- You paint your design on thin paper before heat pressing for one minute onto your fabric

- The heat press takes 40 minutes to heat up efficiently

- Each colour prints more vibrant and brighter then what the paint seems.

  

•  Research that you carry out in these sessions:

Primary research - I tried for myself and used all the tools given.

Secondary research - I listened to the teacher at the beginning of each session explaining                          everything.


•  Skills that you have tried:

Printing on fabric using disperse dyes and a heat press,
Free machine embroidery,
Hand sewing,
Applique using Bondaweb,



•The processes and methods you used :

Process - Painting a design and pressing using heat press. (Printing)
Method - Sketching the initial design then tracing backwards and adding, using different colours with text and images.
-
Process - Using embroidery thread to hand stitch.
Method - Using a running stitch around the edges of my fabric.



•  The tools that you used:

Fabric, disperse dyes, pencils, paint brushes, bondaweb, an iron, sewing machine, stitch pins and embroidery thread.

Camera room homework

FISHEYE LENS: The fisheye lens can sometimes appear like a normal lens, however the majority of the time it appears to poke outwards slightly. The fisheye provides an almost stretched angle allowing you to see more in the cameras peripheral vision, almost like when you look through a peep whole in a door which means images can appear bent on stretched in the corners of the image or video. From owning one myself I know they are delicate and slightly expensive, especially when it comes to fisheye lenses such as the one shown up to a high standard. I chose the fisheye lens as I have past experience with them through skateboarding as it is the most popular lens used to film the sport as it captures more of the action, whilst allowing the filmier to record from a close range.

Week 5 - Fourth Evaluation of Carousel

Fast shutter speed Slow shutter speed Large aperture Small aperture In the fifth Carousel session we were doing  photography.  Before we began taking photos we learnt things such ass shutter speed and aperture. The shutter speed affected how detailed the image was if the thing being photographed was moving and the aperture affected the centre of focus and if anything appeared out of focus or not. - A fast shutter speed is required to freeze motion motion creating a sharp high quality image. E.g 1/1000 - A slow shutter speed can blur motion creating an interesting, almost distorted effect. E.g 1/13 - Large apertures work for detailed images such as words on a page and focus on everything in the image. - Small apertures work for photos such as the sky and only focus the centre of attention. - Large apertures give a shallow depth of field.  (Small numbers e.g 2.8 or 4.5) - Small apertures give a wide depth of field. (Large numbers e.g 22 or 32)
