1. Task One: Shape Colour and Pattern
Meghan Truscott

2. Shape, Colour and Pattern
This image is abstract, trippy and is an allusion. The image hypnotizes you. As of it’s clear colour of black and white, and its use of curvy lines. Adding the chair makes a bigger allusion due to the lines going in an opposite direction. It goes in to a triangle shape, the base is plain, making the allusion seem more clear when you look at it from a different point of view.
This image consists of lines and colour. The lines aren’t straight, they curve and bend, due to the fact it is stacks of paper. The colours form almost a rainbow like effect, being bold and bright. The pieces of metal form more shape against the rainbow, as well as causing slight shadows, to give a darker depth to the image. I found this product in the stationary shop.
This image is the most plain, out of the ones I took. Although its pattern is fascinating. Looking at the image from different angels, gives a new look to the image every time, as the pattern always differs from each angle. It’s pointy pattern gives of a life support effect.
I took this image outside the floristry shop. The use of greens and pink make a calm palette. It’s various delicate lines make the image peaceful. At the back of the image it is blurred, making it look smooth to the eye. Where as the front is bold and you focus on the shape of the buds of the flower.
This images consists of horizontal and verticals. Using squares/ cuboids, to make an 3D effect. Making the image itself pop out. With the black, white and grey shaded drawings on these boxes, it makes you transfixed on looking at every detail on all the boxes.

3. Photography Task Vertical Line
Vertical lines have the ability to convey a variety of different moods in a photograph ranging from power and strength (think of skyscrapers) to growth (think of trees).
Horizontal Line
There’s something about a horizontal line in an image that conveys a message of ‘stability’ or even ‘rest’. Horizons, fallen trees, oceans, sleeping people – all of these subjects have something about them that speaks either of permanency and timelessness or rest.
Lead In Line
Is any line your eye can follow into an image. It could be the edge of something, the horizon, or an interesting pattern you observe. Possible lead-in lines can be found in almost anything in nature or the world around you.
The S Curve
Another dynamic composition tool is to include a "S" curve. As the name suggests, a major element of the composition would be an object such as a stream, path, railing, or other curved object that creates an "S.“
Diagonal Line
Diagonal lines generally work well to draw the eye of an image’s viewer through the photograph. They create points of interest as they intersect with other lines and often give images depth by suggesting perspective

4. Photography Task Balanced Shot
Achieving a balanced shot, is something photographers learn over time. Ways of achieving this are; cropping (sometimes some post production processing will achieve a lot), altering your shooting view point (shooting from higher up or lower down, zooming (more tightly cropped or wider angles), moving an element of your picture (sometimes scenes can be rearranged). The composition of the image just looks balanced.
The rule of third, is used so the viewer can focus on different positions of the image, e.g. object, person, scenery.
‘The rule of thirds is a concept in video and film production in which the frame is divided into in to nine imaginary sections, as illustrated on the right. This creates reference points which act as guides for framing the image.’
Dynamic Shot
Dynamic range is the difference between the lightest light and darkest dark you can capture in a photo. Once your subject exceeds the camera’s dynamic range, the highlights tend to wash out to white, or the darks simply become big black blobs. It is normally difficult to capture a dynamic shot, but with new technology its now more likely.

5. Although I feel the images could be more exciting.
Photography Task
Rule of Third
This was of a wired horse.
Diagonal Line
This was of stairs.
Dynamic Shot
This was of the roof of an elevator.
Lead In Line
This was taken in a hallway in H block.
Balanced Shot
This was of an exit door.
The S Curve
This is an painting in the street.
Vertical Shot
I think my contribution was well, as myself Charley and Andy all equally took photos as a team and thought carefully about what suited the task.
Although I feel the images could be more exciting.

6. Health and Safety Image Reference Evaluation
In this task we had to be careful in using the equipment. Make sure we had a steady hand when using the camera and that it was always around our neck, or in its bag when not in use.
Image Reference
Evaluation
In this task I learnt a lot about the use of patterns and how it can make an image stand out, and bring its colour to a more bold stance. How a lead in line can direct a viewer to the purpose of the image.
