Reflection Upon Assignment 2

Now I have finished Assignment 2, i can take the time to reflect and check my work against the assessment criteria to get a feel for how well i think i have personally done.

Demonstration of technical and visual skills
- Materials, techniques, observational skills, visual awareness, design and compositional skillsLooking to create shapes and lines within photographs, I'd like to think i have been quite visually aware. as i think this is key to create such an outcome. I have tried to create some sort of variation in each photograph i have took, whether that be subject or composition, so it does get boring or a little samey. I would like to hope i have achieved this.

Quality of outcome - Content, application of knowledge, presentation of work in a coherent manner, discernment, conceptualisation of thoughts, communication of ideas
I try to communicate my ideas as best i can as i go along, I like to think i am pretty open with what i am doing. Although maybe not as well communicated as in my previous assignment.
I have tried to apply all the skills i have learned where possible, and apply what i have learned through my research upon this project.


Demonstration of creativity - Imagination, experimentation,invention, development of a personal voice
I feel to a degree, i have remained imaginative, however i do feel my creativity has let me down a little bit with this assignment. I feel like i have perhaps been a little too obvious with my choice of photographs, and not thinking outside of the box as much as i could have. Now i have finished the assignment, each piece I look back at, i can think of a million different ideas for that concept that what i could at the time.
This is something i hope to improve on as i progress.

Content- reflection, research, critical thinking
As suggested to me by my tutor, i carried out some research on lighting in an attempt to improve the quality of my photographs,I'd like to think there has been a slight improvement with this in my work, as i have tried to be more conscious about lighting with each photograph i take.
I'd like to think i have been quite logical and linear in my thinking and have displayed this through my work.


Overall, I would say my work for this assignment was adequate, I do not feel i have done exceptionally well, as i think i could have been a lot more creative in my work, but i do not feel i have done terribly. There were aspects I enjoyed and didn't find too difficult, but then there were aspects, finding triangles, that i found a little harder.
