This space had some better lit areas than the other evening events I have shot during this module, which is probably a main reason why I produced more portfolio-worthy shots. Subframing However, I have also been inspired by fellow coursemates Bronte Carter and Erin Cooper-Jones’ method of using objects in the environment to frame my…… Continue reading Spring Equinox Event Photography | Reviewing final outcomes…

Amelia Sutcliffe on LinkedIn | Connecting with a fellow videographer.
Through the collaborative videography experience of filming the Salsa flash mob, I met a fellow videographer with more commercial experience, Amelia Sutcliffe. Before meeting in person, I made contact with her through email and LinkedIn – I think doing this helps to build a lasting professional relationship with people, in the same way that I…… Continue reading Amelia Sutcliffe on LinkedIn | Connecting with a fellow videographer.
Exhibition Event Film | Reviewing final outcome…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOrZGTVySHA&t=2s There was initially no specific use outlined to us for the footage captured at the Human Aquarium launch, other than video documentation of the event. So for the most part of this film I took on the role of director, even though I would consider the client to be Yorkshire Life Aquatic. From the…… Continue reading Exhibition Event Film | Reviewing final outcome…
Preparing consent forms & filming notices for Salseros Unite.
Part of providing my videography/photography service to Salseros Unite has involved preparing customised consent forms. The client had written an initial draft which I then edited to incorporate all of the participant/licensing information provided by the University guidelines. I also made sure that I prepared numerous filming notices which could be used on the day…… Continue reading Preparing consent forms & filming notices for Salseros Unite.

I am also now an admin on the Facebook group, and have used it to organise regular meetings. It is surprisingly time consuming to maintain an active Instagram account, let…… Continue reading Conscious Creatives Social Media
Asking for credit.
As part of this module I am learning to explicitly ask for credit every time I share photos. I’m not sure if this is an accepted demand for paid work, but it is absolutely crucial that any photos I share for free are credited with my name and point of contact, as networking is a…… Continue reading Asking for credit.
Using White Balance to change mood/atmosphere | Adobe Lightroom
My photos from the second Youth Strike for Climate in Leeds were true to life – I tried to use a very neutral white balance that represented the lighting on the day as accurately as possible. ( Looking back on the photo above, I feel the tint could be slightly too magenta. Or maybe the…… Continue reading Using White Balance to change mood/atmosphere | Adobe Lightroom
Summat Event Film | Reviewing final outcome…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrlrSOLblhY&t=1s I really feel that this final outcome shows an accumulation of technical improvements, learnt from less successful outcomes produced up to this point and advice from my specialist tutor meetings. In particular: Colour balance & continuity Unlike the Human Aquarium Event Film, I dedicated more time on adjusting the tint and temperature of each…… Continue reading Summat Event Film | Reviewing final outcome…
