Unit 4 Best Work

Unit 4 best work from shannonaharris

"Like" Me

In this shoot I have looked at the obsessions that people have with being liked on social networks, for most people when they post or blog online the are looking for gratification on their opinions and lifestyle. I did this through using cut outs with words and logos on related to social media websites, I also used lots of individual logos to show how many social networks one person may be connected to. I really enjoyed this shoot both in editing and working in the studio. 

Dont Bottle It Ip

In this shoot I wanted to look at campaigns and how they have impacted on mental illness in todays society and previously throughout history. In this shoot I firstly aimed to create basic images with text above them, however when I began to edit them I also used different effects in them. I really enjoyed this shoot as it allowed me to look more into the campaign side of mental illness. 

Technology & Youth

In This shoot I wanted to look at technology including social networks are even reaching our younger generations, so for this I used an infant in my shoot. I provided the toddler with various mobile phones to show how she is only young but it still memorised with the idea of technology. The ironic thing was that the she actually knew how to use these devices which just proves that technology is reaching out to even younger generations. 

 

 

Sickness.

 In this photoshoot I wanted to create surreal images of how wires and technology can be taking over our lives. I have combined an action which is biological and human which is being sick and added a technological twist, by doing this I am creating an alternative way to show how technology is taking over. I really enjoyed this shoot and believe it provided me with a set of very good images which clearly displays the concept of my unit.

Exam Shoot 4

This is my fourth and final shoot from my exam, in this shoot I used the studio to do a basic shoot where I showed wires and pills next to each other. I did this to show how they are contrasting objects but can be very similar in a different context. For example many people can be addicted to pills however increasing numbers are becoming addicted to technology and social networks.

Exam Shoot 3

This is my third exam shoot where I decided to make an animation where I would show that some people are so addicted to technology that they carry it throughout their day to day lives. On this journey I am showing how the actual world is being ignored and substituted for technology and the cyber world. It is a common sight to see someone walking down the street on their phone however I wanted to show it from a different perspective.
