SHOOT 4

For my fourth shoot I used the lego figure again but this is for the last time as I want to experiment using scale in another way. This shoot took place in my bedroom because of the windows and that it was on the second floor so I could fit the green vegetation into the background of the images. For this shoot I used a Nikon D3200 with a 18 - 55mm lens. I experimented using the zoom with the 18 - 55m lens with close up shots and then long shots where I had the lego figure looks smaller. I used manual focus for this shoot as well as the camera kept focusing on the window so I used manual to focus on the lego figure. 

This shoot went real and reflects well with the other shoots. There were a variety of factors that contributed to this shoot. Firstly, the lighting in the shots is perfect as it creates a nice composition between the lego figure and the green vegetation in the background. In addition to, the angle of the shots are satisfactory because of the different close ups which use scale well as it varies the size of the lego figure in each shot. A good example of this is  image 11. However, there is an image that I wasn't too happy with. An example of this is image 1 because of the lighting. The flash from the camera has caused the image to become too bright and you can also see the reflections on the window from the flash. 

Overall, I'm really pleased with this shoot as I've been able to make it look as if the lego figure is cleaning the window, bringing movement to the Images. In addition to, the shape of the window creates a frame for the image, thus framing the lego figure. Lastly, the green vegetation in the background creates contrast and composition which adds more detail to the image. For my next few shoots In plan on using humans and human objects to experiment with scale and shoot large scale images instead of small scale images like I've done with the lego figure.
