Study appropriate sources and produce your own work in response to Manipulating reality. I have chose manipulating reality because i like the idea that you can play around with your images via photoshop. I don't particularly use photoshop but this would be a moment were i can experiment on it. Photographers often create unusual compositions by manipulating the reality that an image presents.Photographers often create unusual compositions by manipulating the reality that an image presents Another reason why i chose manipulating reality is because its creative and unusual.
Initial ideas
Paul Biddle
Paul Biddle's work is very interesting and creative as he does mix features of the human body with animalistic features. He also clearly uses photoshop to edit his images to make it look effective. Paul Biddle uses a variety of different colours in different tones. He arranges together and makes collages before manipulating reality. I am going to respond to Paul Biddle's work by photoshopping my own set of images and make them unusual.
Kevin Corrado
Kevin Corrado manipulates human reality. He combines photographs of landscapes and people using both physical and digital manipulation to rearrange reality.He also involves many different scenes in one photograph and makes it look realistic. All the different settings are what we use in our everyday life. What i also find interesting in his images is the different colours he includes and how realistic he makes it look. From seeing Kevin Corrado's photographs i am going to try mirror some of the things he does for example the way he takes something so simple and makes it look so effective and obscure.
Eresha Sale
Eresha Sale made an animation called 'surrealism' . In the video she uses different compositions to make objects look unreal and manipulate them. He uses dark colours and gold to create a mysterious scene. It has been titled that her photographs have been used to 'juxtapose the multiple 3d elements'. In response to this one of my final pieces is too create a short film with all different types of my own unusual photographs.
First try at photoshopping my images
These are my first try at manipulating my photographs. However i didn't go with my plan i was meant to take inspiration from Paul Biddle's work as that was my criteria and what i find interesting so what i am going to do is for my second trail i am going to stick with my criteria and try mirror Paul Biddle's work.
