Project 13: Stop Motion Animation

In my stop motion video two elephant friends go on an adventure to make cupcakes since one of the friends is hungry. To make it T just set up all the ingredients and adjusted them between the shoots.

Project 10: Portrait Photography

Commercial Portraits

To take these two photos I went in the courtyard of my apartment building and

had my brother and his girlfriend pose for me in several different ways. For

my commercial portraits I wanted them to have the feel and look of a fashion

magazine so thats how I positioned them to look. These function as commercial

portraits because they are supposed to appeal to the audience and encourage them

to buy the magazine rather than just be fine art. 

Fine Art

To take these photos I got some string lights and I wrapped my brother and his
girlfriend in the string lights turned off the lights and took as many photos as
I could. I told them to make whatever faces they felt like making to try and get
a meaningful emotion and photo out of the shoot. These function as fine art portraits
because they are meant to show something beyond the photo. 

Fine Art vs. Commercial Portrait

Matt Holyoak

In this photos one of the main differences that I noticed was his expression and

composure. In a lot of his photos for magazines he has a very serious look intended to draw the consumer in. But in the fine art photo he just appears to be more himself more.

the colors also differ in the commercial photo the colors are more black and white while the 

fine art photo has more soft pastels.

Project 10: Commercial Portrait

Commercial Portrait photography is photography mainly used to 

promote or advertise some type of product or brand.

In the commercial portraits all they are trying to do is sell the product

there is almost zero artistic intent in some commercial portraits. 

Project 10: Fine Art Portraits

A fine are portrait is an artistic portrait that is meant to have a

significant deeper meaning and tries to reveal something about the subject.

In these portraits I feel like they are trying to convey the emotions of the subject
so that it feels like you are directly looking into the person without any
barriers of society.
