Portfolio work

This Friday I started photographing work in preparation for putting together a digital portfolio, am overall happy with how they worked out, but wish I had some 3d work, would look better in photos.

Context, Content and Process

Last week on Friday we focused on artists and how they are able to show their content context and process online.  It was interesting to see how different people choose different methods of display and how some work innately fits a digital layout and how some is lessened by it.  This was important to consider the differences between showing your work in process to showing a finished work.  Will keep this in mind when doing digital portfolio

image This Friday we have been focusing on the sequence of images and how that changes the narrative within.  I enjoyed working with images to create narrative, it reminded me of old filmmakers cutting together scenes of film.

Everyday Connections

This week we looked at some photographers who explore connections between images and create collections that create a narrative.  Im really looking forward to trying to attempt this project as well.  I really like the idea of communicating with only photography to create a clean and clear narrative, that is interesting enough to be open to conceptual critique and analysis.  I will post a few of my favourite photographs from the seminar.

A bad spell of trains

we curse bad commuters,

we place a hex on trains

you music blasters,

may your headphones always be tangles

you smacky eaters,

may your food always lack salt

you smelly eaters,

may you always smell of overwhelming linx

you seat hoggers,

may your bag be glued to your back

you loud football hooligans,

may anytime you try to shout loudly about the match, a football tumbles from your mouth

you noisy chatters,

may your mouth me zipped

you pda- era,

may your heart turn to stone

we curse bad commuters,

get ready South West Trains

this was a group written piece of work, where we enjoyed coming up with suitable punishments for people with bad train etiquette

The window

Every sunday they sat down at 6.  It was warmly lit and always had a bowl of fruit on the table, as she started to lay the table, she would put it aside, the apples and the clementines were stacked with so much enthusiasm that occasionally one would fall.  She laid the table as she always did and once the food was brought out out all the food she had prepared, always the same on a sunday

And they came the sitting and then the eating. They sat mainly in comfortable silence, enjoying eachothers easy company exept occasionally asking the other to pass a dish.

They always sat like this, then after they had finished they would clean their mouths with white cloths and take all the plates into the kitche, he would wash, while she filled two glasses with brandy, then the routine followed with the placing of the fruit bowl back onto the table, this time the routine was broken as  aclementine fell and rolled towards the window, she looked out.

this is a piece of writing that I started in the Friday lecture but finished at home, the Friday seminars have made me want to create more written work at home and engage with the non visual aspects of story telling ,
