Lenticular


Lenticular artwork is a printed photograph or painting placed on a rippled surface in a certain way that depending on the angle the image will shift from one thing to another, sometimes making an animated effect. 

ROA

ROA is a graffiti and street artist from Ghent Belgium born in 1976. He has put his work all over Europe, United States, Australia, Asia, New Zealand and Africa. He usually paints wild animals native to the area. He uses mainly simple colours such as black and white, but also uses splashes of bright vibrant colours to show the veins within the animal.

A latticed warehouse door in London provides the perfect setting for lenticular graffiti. The rabbit by the artist Roa, from one angle you can see a realistic grey rabbit, and from the other you get a black silhouette with the rabbit’s veins and arteries showing in bright red.


















Roa had a show for his lenticular work at Brooklyn’s Factory Fresh. The work displayed included a rat painted on an arrangement of wooden posts as well as a small rabbit on black doors.















Roa also had a second showing in 2010, he applied his signature animal x-ray style to a hinged room divider at the New Puppy Gallery in Los Angeles.

This is the photo  am choosing to recreate for my 3d digital photography. However, I am going to use photos I took, one of the sea and replace the boat with a picture of the moon I took. I chose this image as it challenged my knowledge of photoshop and allowed me to learn new skills. I also enjoyed it's abnormal aesthetic.

multiplicity

Multiplicity The aim of this exercise was to have one picture with the same person occurring in the same picture. Before we started we were told to be careful as if the lighting dramatically it would show up along with making sure the background didn't change so I had to be careful with cars in the background.  I started out by taking four digital pictures of my classmate posing in different positions each time. Once I did that I used photoshop to edit them making them all the same for example the exposure as some were darker than others. On photoshop i also stacked the pictures and created a mask layer for each one, this allowed me to use the erase tool and remove one of the Alex's and by pressing 'command I' it  removed everything on that layer besides what i rubbed out, that left two Alex's i then continued doing this for each one until all the photos of him were on one picture.

Evaluating Someone Else's Work

You are going to look at another person's work 1.Firstly use 5 words to describe that work Close up shot Natural form  Shallow depth of field  Peaceful Icy 2. Now comment on the images form This means looking at the formal elements of an artwork. What is the medium of the work? To take this picture the photographer told me she laid down on the floor and zoom in and manually focused the lens. What kind of shapes or forms can you find? There are a lot of jagged edges and round shapes. There is also a couple of curled leaves. Which techniques have they used? She used a low aperture to get the background blurred out. What kinds of textures can you see? There are rough textures in the bigger dead leaves but a smoothed out edges on the smaller green leaves. 3. Finally consider the mood and meaning of the work Mood means looking at how the artist has created a certain atmosphere or feeling. How does the work make you feel? T
