Photo Text Assignment Reflection

1.What do I like most about my series of photos?

The thing I like most about my series of photos is how they are slightly unusual. You can't just look at the photo and know what it is and what it means. You have to interpret it which means that each different photo could be interpreted differently to each person. I like the actual photo that I took of me in the mirror with the duck tape over my mouth. It's kind of creepy and different, but means so much for the lyrics. This is what I was aiming for.


2. What do I like least about my series of photos?

What I like least of my series of photos is that I found it hard to make the text a part of the picture rather than just on top of the picture. I found that in my last two pictures, the text was just there. It didn't really match with the photos. I find that the colours that I chose for the text in the last picture didn't really match the mood that I was trying to portray in the photo. I had trouble thinking of ideas for the second photo and this was the result. I think that it could have been a bit more original. I think that I could have used more filters on my pictures to get the mood and impact I was looking for.

3. Which photo was the most successful of the three and why?

I think that the first photo was overall the most successful. This photo perfectly captured the mood and impact that I wanted to portray in my photos. I think that it fits really good with my lyrics. This picture makes people look twice when they see the photo. I think that this makes them want to know what it means. This picture is the most original and different compared to the other ones just by the method I used to make it.
