SHOOT 1

For my first shoot I done a shoot using a lego figure to show how a living toy would move in the human world. This shoot took place in my kitchen due to the night lighting which was  perfect for the shoot as the lighting was natural, thus making the shot look more realistic. In addition to, the plant in the kitchen was what I needed due to the large stems of the plant to create a bigger comparison with the lego figure. For this shoot I used a Nikon D3200 with a 18 - 55mm lens. I I experimented with and without flash in various images to see which created the better lighting. In addition to this, I feel without flash created a better image.

The shoot went really well and I'm happy with most of the images from this shoot. My favourite images from this shoot are images 6 and 10. This is because of the lighting and the positioning; the angle of the shot and the positioning got the lego figure. The lighting creates a nice composition and the positioning creates movement within the image so it looks like the lego figure is moving and real. However, the images that I fell could've been better were images 1 and 4. Firstly with image 1 the lighting isn't good enough as its too bright due to the use of flash and its zoomed too far out and doesn't give any detail or composition. Image 4's good apart from the lighting, which is far too dark and not bright enough. 

Overall, I'm very pleased with this shoot as most of the images turned out to be good and its how I imagined it to look when going through shoot ideas. For this shoot I don't intend on editing for my best edit as I want to have a 'no filter' effect and keep the images as real as possible. With my next shoot Im planning on using the lego figures again but in different situation/scene.
