3 Urban Camouflage Pictures

The location was at a couch in my house.  The process was taking somthing that blended with the couch. My inspiration was doing something quickly and that it would look good. My decision on this location is having black clothing. This turned out really well.











The location was at my refrigerator at a house. The process was taking a white shirt and a paper to cover the face so it faded. My inspiration was something easy that i could do. My decision for this location was something with not much work. I thought it would turn out better.

Camouflage 3 Examples

I choose the image because it was clever how i think she was painted. She was painted like the fruits in the back and she camouflaged in.

I choose this image because he was wearing  what was behind him. The height of the chips is good because he is standing. His face should be hidden and it would camo in the back good.

I choose this image because he was hidden in the paper or binder. It looked like it was just overflowing with paper. The downside is that the paper are all tied together but its still cool.

Urban Camo Write-up Arron Larney

      Camouflage is blending in with the background, and not being noticed by the surrounding. The artist i am going to write about is Arron Larney  

         Arron Larney was born and raised in London. He graduated at Central Saint Martins with a Masters Degree in BA Graphic.Aaron has done many different types of artwork.

           He works mostly on digital and motion graphics. Aaron has made a couple urban camouflage project which involved graffiti.

         He works with the help of Matt Child and Dosah both artist.  They gathered a suit and the artist would spray paint the suit to match the background. he also created one was with newspapers and ads and the background was matching what the person was wearing. He blended with the background very well because what he was wearing matched the background. 

              Aaron Larney's work will influence my work because what he does is blending in the his surrounding. His work is more creative and more expert than what i have in mind. Aaron is creative with the background pick. I will try to use some of his technique on the work i will attempt.

                

         

             

 

3 Dreams Of Flying

My inspiration idea was from looking at a chair and adding a book to make it look like he is reading while sitting. I composed the image by getting a person to sit on a chair reading a book. I did not edit the image.

My Inspiration idea was looking at a soccer ball at the P.E. office. I composed the image by getting a soccer ball and kicking it in to the soccer net (garbage net). I did not edit the image.























                                                            My inspiration idea was from Jan Von Hollebens' page looking at his dreams of flying ideas. I composed the image by getting two people to be balancing me like ballae. I had to rotate the image in photoshop because it the image was taken on its side.

Dreams Of Flying

I like this image because it has abstract feeling like there in the circus. The girls are angled like there ready to swing and the way they are holding. The camera is from a birds eye view so it has a more of a good shot. The background matches the circus act which is good.

I like this image because the boy is floating away with the balloons. The shot is angled slightly to give the picture more depth. The sand should be a blue background or some sort of sky so we can see he's floating. The lighting is

I like this picture because it caught my attention be the way the kid is dangling from the building like king kong. I believe it is shot from the birds eye view.  The props were a clever idea and it was all props that you could easily get. I like the lighting because it brings out the image more.

Shutter Speed

Aperture

The images sun glare to the houses changes  as i change the aperture.  The grass also goes greener and the houses get darker.

3 Positives 3 Negatives

The time for the positive was longer than the other images because it was darker and needed more exposure to see the image. The image was from the houses and it was exposed to the sun for too long.

This image was an inside image which took 3 minuites to get the negative. I lost the test strip and guessing it was approximately less than 10 seconds. You could see the halls on the left, the door in the middle, and the lockers on the left.

This is the best piece out of all, the exposure from the negative was the right colour that the positive came out good. The positive was 10 seconds long and you could see the school back.

Pinhole Camera

This is interesting because it was made from a pumpkin and the light was probably the side.

This looks basic with tape and a cover to block the light out.
