LO5 - General Evaluation & Gallery Setting

Above is an image I made in Photoshop of how my photographs might look if they were put into a gallery. The descriptions for the images are available in the LO5 Images W/ Descriptions post. The options I might have for showing my photographs are:

• putting them into a real-life gallery
• putting them online
• putting them into a film/slideshow

The best option for me is having the photographs online, as i already have them as PNG and JPEG's and they are also on my Unit 31 blog. It would also be beneficial as i have created a video for my images which is already also on my blog. The video goes through all my photographs and gives descriptions and editing techniques about them. The most difficult option for presenting my photographs would be putting them into a real life gallery, as it would be difficult for a gallery to not only accept my images but it would most likely incur a cost as well to put them there. A gallery could be formed in the UTC Creative exchange however this would be dependant on people coming and viewing your media, which in most cases would be more difficult as it is not widely known about the event happening. I chose my photographs to be online as it is more convenient for me and my viewers, with internet being more widely avaialble to everybody.

My photographs tend to use Cropping and Scaling to crop from their default rectangle shape (1920x1080) 16:9 to the 4:3 1000x1000 squares you see above. Cropping is also used on some photographs to allow the centre of interest to be perfectly in the middle. If i was to take my photographs again, I could experiment with chroma key (green screen) or possibly images with text which would allow for some interesting shots.
