The first thing I did for this picture was pick a background, at first I picked a background of a desert, but after a while I didn't like that background, so I cropped it and picked this picture. I picked this background because it looked cool and different. The next thing I did was get the egg, clock and a street lamp and put them in the background. I than put the clock in the top right in up there then used the tool "overlay" to blend it in with the sky. after that I merged the clock and the egg together, than I started to play around with tools and started placing things in different. I put the street lamp in the bottom right corner and made it so it was falling over, but than you opened my eyes to the fact that it wasn't that good there so i cropped that one and put the new one in there.After that I put the egg clock in front of the moon so it is glowing behind it, and finally i played around with everything else until it looked like i does now.
Jeff, see the rubric for spelling and grammar concerns. You image has a very nice mood. I;'d like to see you spend more time explaining the meaning of the image or story it tells, not just the technical aspects. You need to be able to do both. If you are going to convince a client to buy an image it is usually based on its meaning, rather than technique.
ReplyDeleteI'd also like you to focus on using Media vocabulary. For example the picture is mainly MONOCHROMATIC meaning it is mostly tone of one colour. The coloured moon therefore becomes a FOCAL POINT, meaning it drawing the viewer's immediate attention. You achieved BALANCE by putting the vertical object on the opposite side from the clock "planet". I think you know these things but you just don't remember to say them.
