Final Composition Project

I will probably use pictures from my house, the landscape around my house, and school because right now, that is where most of my life takes place.  I interact with a lot of people each day, but the people are pretty unchanging.  I will incorporate a shot of my friends, because they help me each day.  Right now, I am mostly focused on going to college, getting good grades, and being active.  Most of my pictures will be in bright colors with high contrast, mostly realistic, but just a bit more colorful than reality.  This is because many people tell me that I live in a fairytale, similar to the world but everything is prettier, happier, and lighter.  A lot of my pictures will be from a worm's eye view, because that is another way I view the world.  I usually think of the world as my own sort of wonderland, but I am Alice when she is small.  Everything is fascinating and new, but also a little intimidating.  I always think of my future as flying, so there also will be a few pictures that use bird's eye view, but they will probably pertain to my future.

Photo #1- I am about the get my license, but I don't like driving.  I have to drive to help my family, because we have a lot of people who need help getting to many different places.  I find driving as a terrifying necessary evil, but stress on the evil.  I want to take it from a worm's eye view that will show the car as extremely powerful and foreboding.

Photo#2-  I want a picture of my treadmill, because I look working out my stress in the evening.  One of the things I always notice is how the tread feels beneath my feet, so I will probably try to incorporate the texture into my picture.

Photo#3- My exchange student Eva is another extremely important part of my life.  I will try to incorporate the rule of thirds in this picture, but also slightly angled up at her because if we ever have to compromise, I usually just indulge her.

Photo#4- I will take shots with windows, or maybe even make the windows a focal point, but I often stare out of them while I daydream.  I hope to incorporate vertical, diagonal, or horizontal lines in this picture.

Photo#5- I have a picture of a classroom, because a good portion of my day is spent in school.  I used symmetry because every school day is identical, and yet unique in its own way.

Photo#6- I want a picture of my school supplies, because a lot of my life revolves around my schoolwork, and all of my future dreams also hinge on my performance at school.  I want to use horizontal lines for this picture.

Photo#7- I love being outside, especially swinging on a tree swing, so I would like a picture that has asymmetrical balance with the swing and the tree.

Photo#8- I really enjoy picking out what I am going to wear, and finding the perfect outfit for a certain occasion.  I want to take a picture that includes variety in the composition.

Photo#9- I want to framing or leading lines in a picture of my driveway because even though I am really happy at home, I cannot wait to go out in the world and see how I stretch my wings.

Photo#10- I want to take a picture of a lot of my Chinese trinkets and cultural artifacts because Chinese is such a large part of my life.  I will probably use variety to show the different colors and qualities.
