Task from Contextual Studies

Pick a reflective model (you can pick another or make your own if you like!) and apply it to a piece of work that you have made.

Think about what you could change for your upcoming projects, or different approaches that you could take for further works

I chose Rolfe's reflective model as I felt it worked better for me and would help me think more in depth about my work. I decided to reflect a piece of work that I did over the reading week because I know these definitely need improving.

What?

What happened?

I shot images in my garden for an Alice in Wonderland themed shoot but didn't turn out quite how I wanted them. I want them to be shot on location with objects hanging from the ceiling and more on the table. My model also had a smile which I didn't want.

What did I do?

I set up my set in the garden and set my camera up on a tripod and petit on a 10 second timer to shoot 10 images after the timer was up.

What was I trying to achieve?

I was trying to achieve images that looked like they had a fantasy element to them and images that were all in a sequence.

What was good or bad about the experiences?

I wouldn't say there was anything bad because without doing this shoot I wouldn't know what needed to be improved.

So what?

So what is the importance of this?

If I didn't have these images I wouldn't be able to make my final products of a book for my 201 project.

So what more do I need to know about this?

I don't think I need to know anymore about this but I do know what I want to improve on these images.

So what have I learnt about this?
