So this week, we were charged with photographing our final tea boxes. After a month of working on tea boxes, drafting them by hand then in Illustrator, designing their appearance, followed by cutting them either by hand or an automatic paper cutter. Now that the project is completed, we began the process of cataloging them and preserving them in photography in a professional and logical way. Here are our results.
Craft: For this assignment, unlike the previous weeks, did not use Adobe Illustrator or software. We didn't even use any cutting or measuring tools. What we used instead was a DSLR camera, portable lighting system and props to create these images.
Composition: What we did was utilize a DSLR camera to capture our objects and mobile lighting fixtures. This assignment, we gathered props such as my South Vietnamese Flag, our tea boxes and equipment to construct visually interesting and effective archival evidence. We first placed our tea boxes, one in a series of photos and all three in another. We then added props to another group of photos. Placing our cameras on tripods and adjusting our lighting, we then took the photos. Afterward, we transferred the camera raw files onto our flash drives.
Concept: The concept of this was to capture evidence of the tea boxes. Like other projects we needed evidence of our works and this was our cause. We used cameras to capture what we did and try, with moderate success, to capture interesting compositions.
