Food Photography

Yesterday we managed to shoot our foods. We all decided to have a different idea, but Izzy and Allie had the same idea but different. i went more for an aesthetic look to mine. I am aware that the focus is supposed to be on the donuts but i wanted to add some lights and a book to it, i thought it made it look pleasing to the eye, with just the right amounts of contrast of the colours. I haven’t edited them yet but here they are un-edited.mine.jpgnugs.jpg

We made a mood board that had similar looks to how i did my image, that is the first one. With my artistic look to improve images to Alfies magnificent  photography skills we managed to make this image look truly spectacular. Instead of using Photoshop to edit these, im going to use a paint tool to make them look grand.

First we have the nuggets, I added some yellow lumi to make them look more gold than they already were just to make it pop and seem like they were really like that.download.png

The second one (my personal favourite) of the donuts i wanted to make it as pastel and light but i didnt want to take away the concept of the actual image so i had to make it lumi AND shade.download (1).jpg

all together yesterday was a pretty good success and i enjoyed it alot. All thats left to do is the risk assessment for the shoot yesterday and thats a wrap for this mini project.

all i needed to do for the progression on these photos are fairly simple as its only on an art program.Capture2.PNG

This was the original before i decided to have the baby pink filter over it, looking at it now i think the original would look a lot better.

The nugget one is how exactly we all wanted it to be, golden nuggets to really make them pop out and there is nothing that i would change about this.

Food Photography week challenge

we have been giving a task by ingrid to do food photography but to make it aesthetically pleasing to the eye. I’m in  group with  two people and so far we have come up with a plan for today and tomorrow. To get the items we need we will need to go off site and get what we need for a shoot, already we have gotten the studio booked for out video and photography shoot. we already have an idea on what we’re going to do with the food. we decided to do chicken nuggets and donuts. we have Video and Photography, video will be chicken nuggets, dipping them in some sauce in slow motion, this we are going to have just one for all of us, this’ll be in  boomerang like motion to get the gif effect but more smooth. However, we are going to use  the donuts in a different way. we are going to explore out creativity by doing different ideas but sharing props that we will bring in tomorrow. we all have a separate ideas for out donut idea, later on over lunch I’m going to sketch out an idea that i have and to reference ideas from pintrest that incorporates with my idea, it’ll be pastel with nature / lights, something that you would find right of tumblr.so far this is all we have to do for today. planning for today then tomorrow we will get down to the nitty gritty.
