Mixed Media Image Making
For this unit i came out with quite a few print making techniques, unfortunately i didn't get to do all the techniques like etching. But i came out with some solid mono prints and lino prints. I really enjoyed the mini metropolis work as well where we made our model city and drew from it using lots of different mark making techniques. Overall i did enjoy the brief because i don't usually do print based work and it was good to go back to it and to paint and draw again as i haven't in a while. If i had the chance to do the unit again i would definitely of done all of the different techniques the class done because i would of liked to try etching.
Location Photography
This brief was definitely one of my favourites as we were just given the title and were told to go off with it. I really did enjoy using the Lego and the circuit boards for photo shoots but i definitely enjoyed the oxford photo shoot most. I think it was a great opportunity to go out and photograph architecture first hand and show it through our work. I was really happy with how my final outcomes came out especially the one where i only slightly shown the circuit board in the image because you had to really look at the image to notice it. If i had the chance to do the unit again i would of done a lot more experimentation, I didn't do this to begin with because my other final where i made it really busy and put a bit of everything into it took me a really long time.
Image Manipulation Computer Application
I really enjoyed doing this because we had complete freedom to chose which units we done so it was very easy to decide what to do. I loved going out and doing my own shoots with a tripod and experimenting with shutter speed because i hadn't done it before so it was a new experience for me which i liked. I was very happy with my dystopia outcomes, not so much utopia because i don't think i spent as much time doing it as i should of. I think this is because i went out knowing exactly what i wanted from the dystopia shoot and the utopia one was kind of on the spot and i didn't really know where to start with it. Overall i was happy with the unit and how it all went.
Graphic Image Making
For this unit i kind of cheated in a way i suppose, i used my finals from my Image Manipulation work and just went further into edits after defacing them. Although i did that i really did enjoy editing the photos in the way i did as i don't usually do that. I also enjoyed finding my own research and just going with thing i ordinarily wouldn't. Because i rushed this unit so much i didn't get to do as much as i wanted but what i did do I'm very happy with. I'm extremely happy with my final image for this unit as it was exactly what i had pictured when i started. Apart from being able to experiment more, i wouldn't change anything about the work i did on this unit.
