"I've enjoyed reading your research into photography and portraiture in particular and it shows in your images. They are really well composed and well exposed, your colour images have a slight warm cast but it doesn't detract from the images enough for this to be an issue. Moodboard is well conceived and does reflect your images well with regards to colour and posing. Presentation could've been a bit more polished, remember every element of your hand in should be an opportunity to be creative. An excellent effort and a great start to your time here at Solent. well done." Chris Overend.
My evaluation of my feedback.
In response to my feedback from Chris Overend, I was initially quite surprised that he had enjoyed the development and final outcome of my images. When I first began to plan and practice technical skills learnt from Chris's studio sessions, I felt very intimidated and unconfident. Before attending Southampton Solent University, I had previously studied an Art and Design course, where I was able to explore all different aspects of art and design etc Graphic, digital, fine, contemporary and photography. Although, I had already produced work before through the use of photography, It was never the same as working at University level as Chris encouraged us to be very independent with our photography practice and ideas, creating work that is unique, professional and most of all creative. Because of these factors I feel that both Chris Overend and Sharon D Lloyd, inspired me and my final ideas as I always felt encouraged to push and develop my ideas more, pushing me out of my comfort zone.
Throughout the brief, I enjoyed the theme and also the final photoshoot we had to plan and shoot, in order to create our final images. I do feel that I struggled slightly in computer sessions with Peter O'Keefe, as I was able to use programmes such as photoshop already, but not Indesign and also understanding how to change and improve the color cast of my final images. Although Chris, had mentioned that my images had a slight warm cast and it wasn't really an issue, I feel that to improve and avoid this in the future I would take the time to contact Chris Overend or Peter O'Keefe and ask them for feedback and advice to develop and perfect my final images.
I am happy that Chris enjoyed my research into photography and portraiture as this is something that I also enjoyed a lot when developing my ideas for the final outcome. But I do feel that my research could have been developed further as I wanted to make more comparisons between portraiture, artists, photography and re production of iconic photographs. Lastly, to improve my work in the future I would also take more time to make sure my final submission, images and blog are all up to professional standard as my work reflects on me and my performance as an artist and creative thinker. I am more than pleased with my final feedback and appreciate the constructive comments a lot also, I aim to further develop and perfect my skills and ideas so that I can push myself and creative thoughts more with every project.
