The camera talks

Using Canva I created a moodboard containing 9 of my images which create a narrative from the shoot. I then added hashtags on each of my images including:

  • The technical camera term, e.g long shot, close up, shutter speed, composition, angle.
  • The example/denotation, e.g girl upside down, boy walking through corridor.
  • The analysis/connotation, e.g possessed, alone, texting crush. 

Overall I think I achieved some of the aims here, I managed to create images using a DSLR which created a narrative. I achieved this by taking images with different angles e.g long shot, close up, medium close up. Whilst also adjusting the camera settings for the desired aperture, shutter speed, composition. However, I think I should’ve created a lot more variation on my images, e.g more distances and angles and getting the models to do more varied things.This approach will help when it comes to considering and taking photos for my magazine as I will know how to use a camera to create narrative and portray key ideas to my audience. This is through the use of technical camera effects e.g longshots, close ups, composition, aperture.
