Each one of
Sasha’s photos exemplify extreme complications and are not easy to take in, but
once you look at it for a little you understand the depth of Carey’s works. You
could say that Carey is mostly interested in the photography of motion. She
incorporates it into many different assignments for photography such as simply
motion sequences and her experimental sketchbook. One of her favorite photos is
one where the motion sequence is a girl moving her body around in different
frames, “I love this one, because it portrays a lost soul through the motion in
each frame” says Sasha Carey.
Although, as said
above, a majority of her photos are motion and sequence, Sasha does have her
adventurous side. A lot of interesting photos pop in color or are an intriguing
story to look at. But all in all, Sasha takes photos that make everyone wonder,
and pulls in the looker. Her angles, movements and photos make the picture have
a little extra something in it.
Looking through
Abbey’s blog, you realize this girl is into toy, storytelling and sequence. In
a majority of her photos she portrays a story through her sequence photos. In
another case she uses fake figurines to portray another story.
There
is so much more behind the work of Abbey’s because she tells an in-depth story,
which is, interpreted the positioning of her models or her fake, toy models.
Everyone of her photos defines the everyday world but through a fake toys eyes.
Taking a look at
Alex’s photos, I do not see a very consistent pattern. Mainly Alex focuses on a
lot of actions shots, largely incorporating action shots of people fencing, in
action. I generally see a lot of use of angles just like Sam Chao, and that he
takes advantage of great lighting for photography.
From looking at
Tom’s photos, I get a sense that he is very infatuated with pigeons. Although
not consistently displayed in his photos (I mean pigeons are hard to catch), he
still sticks to a very similar photography style.
In all of Tom’s
photos, I get a very simple and uncomplicated look from taking a peek at them.
I also noticed a great use of shadows in his photos either from direct shots of
shadows or mysterious shots. Tom likes to keep it simple for the most point.
Carlos' style of photography shows great grasp of a concept and much creativity. In many of his photos, he displays a major use of sepia filter and emphasis on his project goal. All of his photos are extremely laid out clear and very precisely photographed.
Carlos is a great photographer because he creates in general a great flow. It seems he mainly likes to work in black and white, sepia, or any filter that isn't color. This portrays a very simple image where you understand right away.
Chuan gives a vibe from her photos that is unlike most photographers work. She makes a photo more vibrant in color, detail and portrayal. A major theme in her work is emphasizing the image, as said before, by making her images vibrant
Those photos are also generally accompanied by text that generates emotions that she really makes apparent. In one photo in particular, named "Leave", it is a character looking distraught, with the very unsettling colors of black and red which sets off a siren. And to tie together the whole picture, in cracked white letters, she writes "Leave" which shows that the character really is distraught and the unstable looking word really morphs that whole image together.
The thing about
Eric’s photos is that he has a ton of fine detailing. A mass amount of his
photos are dark, black and offsetting. Eric’s photos incorporate a lot a nature
as a main theme. In a majority of his photos it incorporates a natural setting
where he captures the movement and lineage of nature.
In a few of his
photos, he edited them to look unnatural which is very different compared to
the rest of his material. He edited his photos to define their characteristics,
which in a way compares to his black and white deep photos because they are
both defined.
While Ian's photos are extremely deep and crisp, he stays mainly minimalistic and simplistic. Looking through his photos that are so cleanly and perfectly portrayed and photographed, it shows a deeper sense of understanding of the things around us.
Sam Chao is
inspiring in the way that he really knows what he is doing. In his photography
there really isn’t a consistent way he takes photos but every way is
experimental and very clean cut.
Each one of Sam’s
photo’s represent something more then just a picture. The photos are deep but right off the bat
represent the idea he is trying to perceive. A majority of his photos have to
do with storytelling. His photos come from different angles, which keep it
interesting, but nothing to hard to look at. He experiments with many different
textures and styles of editing.
