Assignment #20 : Wrapped Object
I decided to take a different approach with the "wrapped object" proposal. When I researched Christo and Jeanne-Claude I mostly enjoyed their wrapped building, bridges, and parks. I thought it was a very interesting concept to wrap something that is so big and and already in nature. However, I wasn't as impressed with the smaller objects that were wrapped. To me the smaller objects didn't do this great idea of wrapping unusual things justice. Because I wouldn't successfully be able to wrap a large scale object to make my photograph as extraordinary as Christo and Jeanne-Claude's I chose to find another approach to the idea of wrapping something. I did some research then came across photoshoots with lights. I was immediately intrigued so I decided what I would do is wrap a model in lights. I thought it would look better than it did because I desired for the lights to be a little more out of focus. But, I still do like the way I interpreted the assignment.

Assignment #19 : Aaron Siskind
My images resemble Aaron Siskind's work because of the monochromatic, texture, and overall dark feel. When I was shooting I had my eye out for some kind of broken pattern to present an eery, almost scary look. For my composition I tried to zoom in a lot so that I was focusing on one thing on one side of the picture. I shot in black and white, also to focus on the composition and shapes found in the photograph. I added a grainy, sharpened effect to the images too, which helped make them darker and creepier.

Assignment #16 : Free Choice Proposal
For my free choice project I am choosing to do an urban city life series. This weekend I am going to the city starting at sunrise and staying for most of the day. I am going to different locations in San Francisco to really capture the different aspects of a day in life of someone living in an urban area. My goal for this project is to photograph different people and be able to tell a story just by seeing the pictures. I'm super excited to go and shoot all day.
