project evaluation

My project is based on homeless people. My aim was to show other people the homeless living on the streets and the impacts people have or had.

I spent two days researching for homeless in York and Manchester. I had taken loads of pictures using digital and film camera. I had one to one conversation with some of the homeless people. I gained the experience of how they live their life's on  daily basis and how rough it is living on the streets.

I have created a 10x8  frame using. My four selected homeless picture that I had researched.
I researched various photographers for my project. My strengths were meeting and socialising with the homeless. I felt slightly petrified and I overcome this by being strong this by being strong and asking questions if they were happy to talk to me I enjoyed talking.

My weakness -I felt a little uncomfortable taking the pictures as some people did not want their face photo taken,this made aware of their emotions and feelings that they were dis-hearted and lonely.

I enjoyed creating my final frame and if I was to create this again I would improve on taking more photos on the film camera. I would also use more text and images on the frame overall I was satiation with my finial out come.

location shoots

I went to Manchester to take photos of homeless people I wanted to do it for my final project. It was hard at first because some of them would let me take but the photo here he let me take a photo of him but I got camera shake so the photo different come out as good if come out blued but you can see he is homeless. I am not using this photo because of the blurriness and the sun shining I the background.
    

This photo was taken in the some place as the first one but different side of Manchester. I use film camera but it didn't come out so good you can the person begging but the rain shows up on the photo.
I used 400 and ISO was 100 .  

This photo was taken in the city centre I changed some of the photo to make the homeless guy side out in the pubic and to make people aware of homeless.

This is the out one of the shops in Manchester some people live in tents because its warm then living on the streets.  I think this photo come out good.

There was a man begging to pay for a hostel for the night so i ask if i could take a photo of him. the photo was taken on film.

final images

 I chose this picture as one my final images because of the reflection in the window.
The technical side of this photo was manual with flash on to the texture side of the photo coming out. The shutter speed was f 11 it brought the picture out bright and clear.

For my final presentation I'm going to be using fames 10 by 8.

 this picture projects emotion with the way the person has to sleep on the streets. I use manual again so get the picture in focus and the setting of the shutter speed was F 11.
I am going to famed this in colour to show imitation in the picture.

                                                                                             

 this black and white image shows a lot of imitation in the face of the homeless person.
I am going keep this in black and white because if brings out the effect of the person being sad and lonely.
I use auto because when i use manual it wouldn't pick up it was to dark and blued.

the texture of this picture is the background it bring out the old bricks in to the photo witch makes the picture look old.  

one plant in a pot to show the loss of a homeless person who died on the streets.
I did this picture on film camera I thought it would look good in a frame. The setting was 400 and the ISO was 120. You have to move it around to the get the perfect picture to come out.

The flower is bright and the background is black and white witch its bring the photo out.  

black and white photos

I changed the exposure to darker levels for a more focus and impact . In Photoshop I opened the history brush tool and model a lighter line to direct focus  onto the centre of the image and to make people aware of him sleeping. 

scanning negatives into the program Photoshop and uploaded the originals to  my blog. I am going to manipulate some to change the effect and the emotion of the picture.
