I feel this skill will help me in the future as I want to continue to improve my photography skills and find new ways to present my photos. 

Do: The new skills that I applied were making contact sheets and annotating them in Photoshop. I also got to work with a camera to take photos of the four formal elements, which were line, colour, shape and texture. I completed this task by taking ten different photos of each of the four different formal elements. The barriers I faced were not being allowed to take pictures in some different places outside of college and not having the camera in focus so I had to retake some of my pictures.

Show: To present my work I layed it out on contact sheets in Photoshop and annotated them saying what I liked and didn't like about them but what I could do in the future to improve them.  I also created a PowerPoint presentation to show nect week in my final presentation.

Improve: To improve my work in the future I need to remember to put my camera in focus properly and I also need to put the flash on to make the pictures brighter.  I also need to continue to improve skills on Photoshop to present my work better.

I feel these activates will help me in the future because I want to learn even more about photography.

I felt that getting the chance to film a one minute video helped me because I got to use a camera and video editing software for the first time in a while.

•Do: The new skill that I applied this week was using some new tools in photoshop such as the black and white and the blur tools. Another new skill I learnt this week was how to render a video and publish it on Showbie. I feel this skill will be useful to me as I want to go into films or magazine editing in the future.

•Show: To present my work this week I used Adobe Spark Video to both edit and show my videos. I found this part of the work challenging because I had never even heaard of this program before and had no clue how to use it. I feel I want to continue to use adobe spark video to present my work because it makes it look clean and professional. I also want to continue to improve my knowledge of it.

•Improve: I feel I need to improve my skills on both PhotoShop and Adobe Spark Video editer so that I can get the maximum use out of both programs so that I can improve the quaility of my work and make it better. ]]> 2017-09-15 10:55:00 UTC https://padlet.com/thomas_mascall99/w3ym269d1kb4/wish/187882637 Wk 2. 18.09.17. Task 2: replicate formal elements (unit 1: 1.1 and 1.2) thomas_mascall99 https://padlet.com/thomas_mascall99/w3ym269d1kb4/wish/187883761 Guidelines for diary entry week 2 
•Know; I now know the meaning of all the four of the formal elements that I have been learning about. These are shapes texture line and colour. The meaning of shape in photography is showcase a certain  thing in a photo such a plant or person. The meaning of texture in photography is to showcase the different feel of objects such as the difference between brick and fabric. The meaning of line in photography showcases different lines that are highlighted in a photo such as right angle. The meaning of colour in photography showcases the different colours in photos such distinguishing a red sunset from a dark blue sea.

Do: To complete this task I took four different photos off the internet from four famous photographers whose work showcased the different elements of photography that I was researching. I then took twelve different pictures using my iPad to capture four different photos to compare to each picture that I had taken off the internet. I then took all sixteen images and I put them on Adobe spark and compared all the differences between my picture and the famous photographers who I had researched. 
Show;  My four images along with my photographer images were all put on to an adobe spark page and I compared them to see which one I would use in final project.
Improve: I would like to improve my adobe sparks skills to improve the quality as I think all photos look professional in the programme but I struggle to use it. https://spark.adobe.com/page/DcpXqhLOpf6lc/

(Unit1 1:1 and 1:2) thomas_mascall99 https://padlet.com/thomas_mascall99/w3ym269d1kb4/wish/187884404 I feel the activity that helped my knowledge and developed my skills further was getting the chance to use padlet because I feel this is a program that I will use a lot more through out this course 

The skills I applied were skills that I learned on padlet such as importing photos to the program and changing the background of it. 

I showed my work in the form of padlet document which I imported artist photos into it and used a link from google to the photo 

I feel I need to continue to improve my padlet skills so that I can improve the quality of work that I complete on the program. I will apply this to my work which will make it better.
