Q1 – Detail two reasons why we change the ISO

You can make a shorter shutter speed. It creates more detail. 

Q2 – Explain the difference in depth of field between a wide and a narrow apature

 With a wide apature it would be a shallow depth of field and a narrow apature would be a deeper depth of field. 

Q3 – List four consideration your had to take into account when producing your pop-art photography. For example, depth of field, shadows etc)

 When producing the pop art I had to make sure that there is no shadows. Be careful of the wires on the floor as the equipment is expensive. Make sure the camera is set at a reasonable angle. Focus on the prop and not the background.    

Q4. Describe when would you choose to use the ‘A’ and the ‘P’ modes on a camera

A= Apature It is used when controlling the depth of field. 

P=Program It is easier when you want to do something quicker.

Pop art first came around in the mid 1950's for Britain and late 1950's for America. Britain used 
pop art mostly after world war 2 and created parody pictures. Among the early artists that shaped 
the pop art movement were Eduardo Paolozzi and Richard Hamilton in Britain, and Robert 
Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns in the United States. The features of pop art is colourful and 
bright pictures. It makes the eye catching and they always look good. 

Lucozade is a company who uses pop art a lot in their adverts. Company's that have products 
with bright colours usually work best with the pop art. 

We will use red head lights in the studio for the lighting of the picture. I will need to find a good 
background for it otherwise it could mess up the picture. I could use pretty much anything for my 
prop for the shoot. I think I should use something bright because it will look better with the 
bright background. 

I will use a light facing down on the prop so there will be no shadow. This will make it a lot 
easier when editing in photoshop.
