Free Project: Initial Ideas and Smart Objectives

This semester I have a free project. For a free project, I chose a photograph, which I will carry out with my phone. When I was thinking about the idea of this project, I couldn’t think of a red/orange color palette. However, I found it boring to do the idea of some color. Next, I looked for inspiration on Pinterest and came across these images. 

I was so impressed with these images that I had the idea to do a Vertigo photo shoot.  In order to achieve the result I’m going to work with different equipment. Since I want to achieve bright and unusual colors in my photos, I decided to use bright, colorful light. For this, I have a special lamp. Also, I will use the ring lamp to achieve additional light. I guess I’ll need a tripod. I also want to show more professional Photoshop skills.  I want my photos to have the Motion Blur Effect.  

Album cover 
Gost - Vinilo

This photo is an album cover of Gost-Vinilo. I really like the color palette of this picture, because it consists of literally two dominant colors - Black and Red. However, this palette gives the picture a certain charm and makes it more suitable for my topic. Also, I’m guessing Photoshop was used to make some versions of the girl. But, as I also know, for this result you can use special lenses. I had the practice of using not lenses, but glass from a vase. Due to the unevenness of the glass itself and its reaction to the light, it helped to achieve the result of the double object in the frame. 

Mylar Chamber 
by Ira Cohen


The photo above belongs to Ira Cohen. His works are especially different from other photographers. The thing is, he doesn’t make the pictures standard and super beautiful. He shows often distorted reality. You can also see a bright color palette in his pictures, as in Mylar Chamber. What fascinates and inspires me most is the unusual nature of his images, which are reminiscent of the Vertigo effect.

Software testing: Flipping Book

Image
 In this and subsequent posts, I would like to test the platforms that would help me create my journal article. In this particular post, I’m going to take a visual example of how I used the Flipping Book . Also at the end, I will share my impressions about this software.  First of all, I opened Flipping Book website and signed up with my google account.  After I registered, a pop-up window asked me to upload my material. Since I already had my project ready I pushed the button 'Download PDF'.  In less than 30 seconds, my project looked like a magazine(see below). After my project was fully loaded, I started editing. The first thing I wanted to do was change the background from gray to something brighter. To do this, I pressed the Skin button and chose the picture I liked from those you can see below. I chose the picture, which is called the School Board, but it was too bright, so I decided to correct this moment so that the reader was not distracted by things he did not need. T
