Some Of His Work
In this photo there is a girl about to jump into a river of sprite. I really like this photo as it uses the cap and the bottle for more
creativity. Slinkachu has created a waterfall using cling film to create water and used actual water on the bottom we believe
that Slinkachu has edited the reflection in the photo as the reflection wouldn't physically be possible. He has used a small depth
of field, worms eye view and cropped the photo to create the most impact.

I really like the creativity in this photo as the photo uses a big mac McDonald's box to create a spaceship. Slinkachu uses an
edited light to make the box look more like a spaceship. he also uses some stairs to show him walking into the ship. The legs
on the bottom of the spaceship may be edited as hose legs look so realistic.

Some Of His Work
in this photo there is a great focus point on the prop. the focus point makes us focus on the prop and what he is doing the color
of the background makes the red of the lollipop stand out of the crowd. It gives it a sense of realism with the slinkachu character on top drilling the red lollipop
the detail in the lollipop to actually make it look like he is drilling and the way the textures are on the lollipop gives a sense of realism

the colour in the background of this picture makes us focus more on what the character is doing because its a dark colour the
focus point also makes us focus on the prop more and what he is doing in the picture. Christopher broffoli has put a prop on a
orange and made it look like the prop is peeling the orange.

Test
My Plan For This Test Is that me and harry are going to experiment with the slinkachu characters and see what kind of shoots that we want to
do and to see if any ideas come into our heads
do and to see if any ideas come into our heads
Shoot 1- Getting The Hang Of It
In my opinion this shoot concluded in poor photographs. I believe that due to the lack of understanding of how to take the perfect image, my images struggled to
portray any story. This made my final images feel very bland and emotionless. I used this shoot to refine technique and become familiar with The slinkachu
characters. I also realized the importance of focus points and prop placement as these effect photos greatly.

Shoot 2- Protest
For this shoot i want to capture people having a protest outside the white house as its happening in america at the moment as they want them to ban guns as many
shooting attacks have happened in america.

Mid-Way Point
Final Product
this shoot was disappointing as it didn't go the way i wanted it to i used a good depth of field and a mid shot to try and capture all the slinkachus in the shot. the
blue tack made this shoot very difficult as its very see able in his hand and on there feet to keep it held up

Shoot 3- Seaside
For This shoot i wanted to capture them at the Beach and swimming. I have a container with sand and shells in it to try and make it look like they are on the beach
Shoot 3- Trying Something Different
For This shoot i want to make a Lego roadblock with the Lego characters using objects that wouldn't normally be used with legos. i want to have all the Lego faces
on show. the main thing i want to have is a Lego man holding a wire of some sort as if the keyboard has been unplugged and they need to fix it.

The Overall quality of this shoot was pretty good i like the idea of the Lego people as they are a lot more bigger and can show more emotion than the smaller
slinkachus. i used the to try a different idea or go into a different direction.

Shoot two
This was the second shoot we did but it had the same concept so I've called its shoot 1 test 2, thing is this shoot turned out
better than the original shoot. This was a hard shoot as when we would take the photo the Lego man would go out of focus and
made everything a lot harder to work with.

the focus is on the Slinkachus so you can understand what they are doing.
