PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

I always want to do a photography series about the movement and the food. Food is essential for surviving. In addition, it becomes an art nowadays. Therefore, I decided that my theme is going to be “snacks,” which involves different gestures and perspectives. I will prepare some snacks that have the complementary color, so I also focus on the color as a whole. My project will show the snakes from the different angle, and make them look attractive. For example, catching the moment when the gummi is falling down, the sequence of the snacks so it will be way more interesting than just one or two of them.

OUTCOMES:

From this project, I will produce the images about the movement and the color. For example, by using the snacks to produce the complementary color and the color gel to create an interesting image is what I am looking for. Also, having the movement involves will also make my final look interesting. My final will have 5 images, regular sizes and it will take place in the studio.

METHODS AND MATERIALS:

For my final project, I mainly used the strobe light for the lighting. I have encountered many difficulties while trying to get the images that involve movement, which is what I expected to do in the beginning. However, I did not really successfully do it, so I tried many different ways to create interesting images too. Also, I used color gel almost all images to create the color combination, such as the complementary color and analogous color. Moreover, I had snoot and grid for shooting and testing out the result.
