I'm a naturally quiet person, therefore I end up using my eyes/face to say things or show how I'm feeling rather than vocally letting it be known!
So, that being said I decided to show this in my task...
I'd been meaning to buy a Shutter Release Cable, this task gave me the push to do it! After a bit of getting used to the equipment, I shot my images using the cable. I have to say I wouldn't have gotten these sharp in-focus results without the use of my Cable Release.
I wanted my face to stay in the same place in the composition and the Cable Release enabled that. The lighting I used gave me small catch lights in my eyes that, had not been there, would of made the image a lot more stale - dead looking.
On being projected very large in the Seminar Room, the images looked sharp, definitely no camera shake, which I was glad about, although I did use a Tripod to prevent this anyway.
It's obvious that I'm using my eyes to communicate something(rolling my eyes, if you hadn't noticed!), this ends with a smile(also something I do A LOT) so to me, this project was successful. There is no having to guess what I'm doing or deep thought into it, it's just out there, in the open. No confusion.
Also, when I was showing this, my peers were asked 'Does this show Ashleigh for who she is?' every one giggled replying with 'definately' and 'yes'...
I'm happy with my results.
