Introduction to Photography
Progression on Project - Theme Based

Lecture:
In today class, we all went straight to the studio and continue with our photo shoot based on what we learn on studio lighting on previous week. When waiting for the others to get ready for the shoot, Mr. Vinod gave comments about the feedbacks; he gave us a day before, for those who were present in the studio at that moment. After that, he asked everyone to gather around for a while as he gave us some briefing about printing our final project soon. He told us that we will need to do a test print first before printing the final 5. We were told to do a frame border in case if during printing, it’ll crop out our picture instead. Around 12:30pm, we were able to finished the photo shoot and the class was dismissed after we clean up the studio.


5 pictures for the project. Theme: Nature (Trees)

Extra:
These photo I was quite uncertain whether it fit my theme or not.  


 This is what I to do sometimes, reading books outdoors.
 This is actually the roots of the tree, it start growing out from the ground and follow the pattern of the road.


 I'm not quite sure about this photo fit my theme or not. It's actually some of the dead leaves I collect from the ground

Feedback :
Specific feedback:
Mr. Vinod said I would need to study even more deep on this theme and by then; I will be able to understand some tips and concept of it. He told me to don’t gave up and try a little more before the submission by next week. He said that editing is also part of this assignment project, thus, I would need to edit some of the photo I’ve took. 

Reflection:
Experience:
During the photo shoot, I helped my friend, who was the model of this week. It was quite fun but at the same time we were quite serious, since we wanted to get it done quickly. I even did help my friend with their makeup a bit. In the end of the day, we manage to finish everything and clean the studio.
As usual, I woke up early in the morning to do this project. It was tough since I slept pretty late the day before but that doesn’t stop me from doing this project assignment. It was a bit cloudy as usual in the morning and since its weekends; there are a lot of people. I wander around for hours and I have to be patience when people are passing by. I even saw a stork that day, strangely it was alone.

I wasn’t able to go near it since I’m scare I will fell down the hill instead. I even some pigeon, a lot of them. I only able to get this perfect shot as they are flying here and there. I should have brought some food for them that day.
In the end of the day I was exhausted, so I went home. I had fun. 

Observation:
From today class, I notice than besides being the photographer, the other person who assigned for the makeup, hair or maybe helping the photographer out was quite an interesting task and I had fun. Every one of my course mates are amazing in their own way, helping each other throughout the very end. 
As for my assignment project, I notice different type of trees I usually didn’t see often, or maybe I didn’t even realize it. Since I’m not great knowing in type of trees we had in our country, I was quite amazed by it. 

I kind of like this tree's texture.
Since I hardly pay any attention on nature itself, I was quite happy when I discover something new. Mother nature is really beautiful. 

Findings:
Again, I have to admit, teamwork is important. We have to work together when we wanted to achieve something. No matter how hard it is, we can’t give up. Everyone work hard on this photo shoot and it was fun. I’ve learned a lot from it, I know that it will be useful for me in the future.
From today’s class, I was able to find new different ways to show my theme, even though there’s still a lot of thing I need to learn. I hope I will be able to achieve that someday. I’m going to try my best and work even harder than before.
