Evaluation
1. What are you thoughts on the finished product:? (50 Words Min)
My thoughts on the finished photos are that they worked out quite well. I think they look like the originals, which is good. I think that some of my pictures could have been more thought out, as I had to make the I.T photos up as I went along. On reflection I think that the photos went well.
2. Does it look how you originally planned? (50 Words Min)
2. Does it look how you originally planned? (50 Words Min)
Some of my photos do look like how I originally planned them to do. My media studies pictures are how I planned them. But my I.T photos don’t look like how I originally planned them. My common room pictures didn’t look how I imagined them but I think that there better that how I imagined.
3. What do you think about the qualities of your work? In Focus, Good bad light
etc? (50 Words Min)
3. What do you think about the qualities of your work? In Focus, Good bad light
etc? (50 Words Min)
The focus of my media photos is slightly out but I do think that it works quite well. I like it how one of the characters is more central and focused and the other one slightly out of focus. The light in the common room pictures is good because it looks like the light is coming in through the window.
4. Give your ideas about comments from others, e.g. audience, peers, tutors, client

I thought the comment that I received was really good. I was pleased because the comment picked up on the character trying to move the battery. Someone viewed my photos and commented on the composition of the IT picture and the lens-cleaning photo. She said that they were well thought out and had a good composition.

These pictures may have been made by using macro photography for the close up shots of the models and then taken normal shots of the sorrundings that the scene takes place in.

My 'Little People Project' started in 2006. It involves the remodelling and painting of miniature model train set characters, which I then place and leave on the street. It is both a street art installation project and a photography project. The street-based side of my work plays with the notion of surprise and I aim to encourage city-dwellers to be more aware of their surroundings. The scenes I set up, more evident through the photography, and the titles I give these scenes aim to reflect the loneliness and melancholy of living in a big city, almost being lost and overwhelmed. But underneath this, there is always some humour. I want people to be able to empathise with the tiny people in my works.
In 2008 I started the ‘Inner City Snail’ project, involving the decoration of snails that I find around London. After decoration, the snails are then placed back, free to go about their business in the city. In many ways similar in theme to the 'Little People Project', Inner City Snail can also be seen as a satire of street art and, more generally, our need to cover every available surface of our cities with graffiti, signage and advertising.

Macro Photography
Macro photography is a setting on the camera that allows you to create really close up shots.
This is a picture of a leather jacket. It was captured using a macro setting.
This is a picture of the sole of my shoe. I used a super macro setting.
In this picture, I used the super macro setting on the camera to be able to get the large close up of the coin.
The super macro setting was used to get the close up of this train ticket.
I bent this train ticket to create a warped effect. Also I used the super macro setting.
This is a super macro close up of Bryony's eye.
This picture is of my sweatshirt arm. I used the macro setting on this shot.
