This week we went over photography and the different types. Fine art portraiture portrays emotion or creative motivation through imagery. Conceptual photography can resemble fine art portraits and can express ideas and concepts to create abstract visions. Still-life photography is a grey area between fine art and documentary-style photography, made of inanimate subject matter. Nature and landscape photography is a setting that cannot be controlled entirely. It captures the beauty of nature and the outdoors. Architectural photography captures photos of buildings anywhere from homes, to churches, to government buildings. Street photography makes the person think or bring up a feeling, story, or idea. Product photography is photos taken to help drive sales of a product or service. Different tools used by photographers include a darkroom. A darkroom allows the process of light-sensitive of photos. Which includes film and photo materials. Center for Creative Photography is of the world's finest academic art museums. Containing archives of five living master photographers- Ansel Adams, Harry Callahan, Wynn Bullock, Frederick Sommer, and Aaron Siskind. Which includes 270 archival collections. Currently, there are more than 110000 works from 2200 different photographers.

The five basic principles of layout and composition, include proximity, white space, alignment, contrast, and repetition. Alignment creates a sharper more unified design. Repetition strengthens a design by tying together otherwise separate parts, and as a result, creates associations. Contrast is the most effective way to create e...

For this week, we got to take a Virtual field trip to The National Museum of Computing in Bletchley Park, England. The museum was really interesting, especially how different it was from the last museum. I enjoyed seeing the evolution of technology and the history along with it. The Color Field painters were an interesting concept, being that color itself is enough on its own. Not by trying to take you to another place or represent the outside world. It emphasised that you were looking at a painting. Then Trompe L'oeil is almost the opposite. Creating an illusion that can trick our eyes. Emphasising on depth and form to create the art. In any form of art knowing the copyright laws is extremely important. Copyright can include text, graphics, sound, video, animations, and more. It's important to always cite and or get permission. The idea of the copywrite laws was carefully made to make sure it wasn't limiting but promoting creativity. Public domain is open to anyone to...
