Selfie-Surreal Self Portraits

Top Five Favorite Photographs

I enjoy how there is a clock in his head but he's still trying to tell time.

The woman is hugging a flower way larger than her own body.

It reminds me of how chocolate melts on your finger, in this case, your fingers(little heads) are eating it.

The color contrast is really pretty and highlights the girl's eye.

I like the colors surrounding the boy; it's basically consuming him.

Helpful Tips

• Use props to help show who you are; things that represent you
• Use different types of lighting, not only natural, but from a flashlight or computer screen
• Try different angles; an angle that works best for you
• Try not to directly look at the camera, almost as if it was candid
• Take multiple shots instead of just one; it will capture you in action

My Selfie-Surreal

This represents me as a person, I tend to spend most of my days being lazy and just sleeping. The two interpretations of my self are my inner beings. One is just looking at me not saying anything letting me do my thing. While the other smaller one is telling me to get up, but I don't listen to that one. The scene in the window shows that there are so many bad things and events going on in the world, and then there's me just doing nothing. (I used dislocation and scale)

Light HW

Video Response

The video began with just a black background with a girl in it. A light surrounded the girl in different positions, as if the light was moving in a circular motion. Throughout the video, the color of lights would change from blue to red and more. The girl would move around a bit to get the full shadow and ambiance of everything. In the video, they used light to their advantage. Light was their dramatic effect and made the video more intense. If they had focused or placed the light in one position and/or color then it would not have had the same effect it had. Her face was transformed with each movement of the lights.

Definitions

• Abstract Art- It has no specific image, it is neither person nor thing. It contains many different layers or dimensions to it. Abstract art contains many different shapes, lines, strokes and more.
• Non-Objective Art- It does not represent things you would normally see in the world. It's different where it takes a customary thing and makes it nonrecognizeable
• Non-Representational Art- Normal objects become unrealistic or innovating different in this style of art
• Abstract Expressionism- This takes a specific emotion and tries to express it through the work of art and emphasizes it widely in a bold but well-balanced manner
