Photography inductions

Yesterday we had our photography and lighting inductions, working in small groups, we learnt about how to get certain effects from our photographs as well as how to use the specialist lighting equipment at the college. Unfortunately because we were on such a tight schedule, we had to return the cameras fairly quickly, and were unable to save any of our photos.

What I learnt:
- Different techniques to light objects in order to photograph them in appropriate light
- How the sensors work with the cameras so that the flash is co-ordinated
- How reflected light can soften and harden images

How this will benefit my practise:
- I now feel confident in photographing my made products to a high standard
- I understand how different angles and harshnesses of light can alter the appearance of printed, flat products, and how the correct lighting can alter the appearance
