Contact Sheet for "Something Old"
Ideas for Brief 2 "Something Old"
As we were advised in class to select something which we found lying around our houses in order to get something old to shoot I decided to use my dads old cobblers shoe. I thought that this would be an interesting item to shoot as it has various textures which would give my photo an overall rustic look. I also felt positive that I would be able to create an effective background which would blend with the theme. This being said I decided to have a wooden background and add a piece of leather to the image, with a piece of suede rag also lying at the side to make it appear as a work place.
My Plan
My Plan
- To place the cobblers shoe in the centre of the image so it is the main focal point
- Having a wooden background to add a rustic theme and make it appear like a work place
- To add extras to create more of a scene such as a rag and plyers
Equipment List
- Nikon D800
- Shoe Cobbler
- Rag
- Plyers
- Wooden board
- Table
- Tripod
- Two lights, barn doors and softbox attachment.
- 50mm lens
My Plan for Brief 2
After being shown various examples for brief 2 in class, we were advised to go to the pound shop and purchase a cheap product which we would be able to shoot on a plain white background.
The product I chose to shoot with a silver metallic pen knife.
My plan for the shoot
- Have a plain white background
- Hang my pen knife with a piece of thread so it is hanging in the air in an upright position
- Shoot from various angles to allow myself to get a variation of pictured which I can use
- Using two lights in order to get the background fully lit and also to highlight the pen knife
Equipment List
- Pen knife
- Nikon D800
- 50mm lens
- 105mm lens
- Tripod
- 2 lights, softbox attachments
- Table
- Thread
- Glue
- Reflector
- White paper
