Exhibition Posters

I have chosen these two posters that are very different in many aspects, and they also had different strong and weak points. This first one is very dark and bod which stands out really well. It gives you all the information you need in quite big whit writing over the top of a photograph. I like this because with the very dark background the white writing sands out and only gives you the information you really need leaving you thinking what the exhibition will be like. The dark image for the background shows what the exhibition might be like so that might get a certain audience but you can't be sure unless you go which is very intriguing. I like how there also isn't anything that takes away from the information given there are now bright colors of odd objects that put you off or takes your attention away from the main subject. The image for the background is really good because it almost had a leading line with the stairs that leads you to the time, dat and admission fees for the exhibition and is also an interesting image. I think this photography was used because you it makes you want to know what the exhibition is about.  I like how with the text all the important information like time / date / location are in bold, the title is also big to create a bigger impact and make the poster stand out.

This poster is completely different to the first, as it it very colorful and simple. I really like this because I feel like it stands out more and is almost more interesting, the colors catch your eye and it also doesn't give anything away about the exhibition. This could also be a downfall because you don't have any indicator as to what the exhibition and that could put people off from going although it could also intrigue some people. Illustration has been used this is good because it doesn't give anything away about the exhibition it almost makes it a surprise. The fonts that are used are really nice because they are quite dainty but that isn't very good when it comes to trying to read the information at the bottom.









My Poster Examples

This is the main poster that I really like, the picture isn't in focus so you're almost drawn to the information

Generating Ideas - Landscape

Landscape photography involves little to no human appearances and is usually just locations, nature or urban landscapes. Urban photography is all mainly man made objects and buildings this kind of photography is less considered landscape photography because it is mainly nature, forests, trees, mountains, fields etc. When photographing landscapes there are a lot of things you need to consider, weather, location and time of day, also you'll need to have a tripod to keep the camera completely still. Type of lens is also important whether you want a wide lens to capture more of the landscape to any others.







Michael Wolf

I really like Wolfs work as some of it is completely random and really different, a lot of his work isn't photographed by him it's screenshots of funny and interesting things he has found on google maps. His series of photographs are all very different and definitely not what you see everyday, it's a lot of stuff that goes unseen by most people. He made about 6 different series of people like this, in events like falling off bikes, people falling over and people sticking up their middle fingers. It challenges the perspectives because it's using location and by using google maps and searching the landscapes shown for interesting photographs.








Wolf also took photographs like this more like urban landscapes. I really like these photographs because they are quite different, in that it's just the windows of the buildings not the actual height and structure of them. I also like how in this one you can see the reflection of other buildings it think it's really beautiful. I think this challenges the perspectives of landscape photography because it isn't a normal location and it's mainly reflections and windows.

I took this panorama but I didn't do it with any settings or a phone, I had my camera set on a wall and inched my way across at the same height getting photos of the whole amphitheater. I then used photoshop to merge them all to gather and straightened the image so it was curved and odd to the eye. If I was going to use this for my final project I maybe wouldn't get rid of the curve or even curve it more to make it almost look like an illusion.
