CDME3011 Digital Photography and
Image Manipulation
Learning
Report
Introduction
The following report will provide detailed background information regarding my experience and learning throughout the module "Digital Photography and Image Manipulation". My first impression of Digital Photography and Image Manipulation was that it was going to be purely about manipulating images using software. However, the module focuses on the use of digital photographic techniques in postproduction image manipulation meaning that I still would get the opportunity to discover how to use a professional camera and software such as adobe Photoshop to create image.
Lectures and Workshops
To start the module off, we went
through several lectures and workshops to build our knowledge and skills, which
has prepared us for the Major Assessed Brief. After each lecture or workshop
there was always a set task that I had to keep up to date with. However, there
were a few sessions I had unfortunate missed, which resulted in falling behind.
Majority of these tasks where to do with research, experimenting on Adobe
Photoshop or using a professional camera. All these sessions allowed me to
explore majority of the possibilities that can be done with a Camera or Adobe
Photoshop.
As soon as we got familiar with
several aspects of Digital Photography and Image Manipulation the Major
Assessed Brief was introduce on the fourth lecture. The advantage of receiving
the main project at this point of the module is that I had enough time to
investigate and experiment. Since I will be introduced to new information and techniques
that’s will inspire me
to produce a successful photograph.
