Weekly Reflection
This week I began the mini metal foundry. We formed the insulation of the foundry by mixing sand, plaster of paris and water. The first time we tried to form the foundry we added too much water so it never formed but luckily we bought enough so that we could remake the insulation. Next week hopefully we will be able to finish the foundry and start melting metal. In my project group I began planning a camping trip to Cuaymaca. I am very excited for this trip because the whole team is suppose to go and we can get some really nice pictures up in the mountains. My goal is to have the trip planned by the end of next week which I think will be an easy goal because we made a lot of progress already this week. Humanities What role does each step play in the creation of a beautiful photograph? Photo- This is the most important part of the process, if you don't have a strong picture to start with then your final project will not be very strong because you can't create a beautiful by editing, you need to start with a good photo Processing- This is also a very important part of the process of taking a photo because you can take a picture from the most beautiful place on earth but if you don't edit the image properly then you won't have the most optimal picture. Processing a picture when done right can enhance the colors, bring contrast to the photo and make the photo more visually appealing. Metallic Paper- Metallic paper helps the photo reflect light. This can also bring vibrance to the picture because the paper causes the light to be reflected off the picture and into the viewer's eye better. The problem with this type of photo paper is that it gets damaged very easily. Epoxy coat- The epoxy coat is used to protect the photo from outside forces. LED and a change in temperatures can damage the photos quality so we use the epoxy to save the picture from these affects without damaging the photos quality. Chemistry How does each stop of the process involve light? The process of the epoxy involves light because epoxy is made of mylar (BoPet). Mylar increases the photos detail and color and overall makes the photo more vibrant. Epoxy protects the photo from LED lights and abnormal temperatures. It also makes the light reflect off of the picture to grab viewers attention and to add clarity to the picture. Why is it important to frame and exhibit work? It is important to frame work because it adds a sense of professionalism to the picture and artwork. The frame that you chose can also add and bring out colors and other elements in a picture, making the picture more visually appealing. Its important to exhibit work so that you can get your work out into the community so that people will think that we aren't just students but students that know what they are doing. Also whats the point of making a kick ass and awesome picture that no one see's?
