Who is Slinkachu?
Slinkachu is an artist from London who creates small street art installations and photographs them. The little people project started in 2006, this involves remodelling and painting figures and train set characters which are places and photographed then just left on the street. Slinkachu says he "aims to encourage city-dwellers to be more aware of their surroundings. But underneath this, there is always some humour." Slinkachu has created these installations in cities all over the world, including Amsterdam. Barcelona and Manchester. He held an exhibition at London's Andipa Gallery, called Whatever Happened to the Men of Tomorrow?. |
I like this one because it is like a war between rich and poor. The rich want money and the poor need it. the money is ripped which shows in the end no one will win there will just be destruction. This photo the main subject is in the middle but it still has good composititon because the two rows of people are on hotspots. I feel like this is kind of a birds eye view because even thought it is small its still looking down onto the figures.

I like this image because it has a medium depth of field you can see the bikers in the back but it is slightly out of focus. There are also a row of birds in front of the bikers looking like they are trying to stop them, it is almost like it is a race and he is winning. Also bringing in the egg its represented as a mountain because they are bumpy.

Shoot 1
plan
for this shoot I want to have a mini figure in a sitting position sat on a daisy with a petal next to it meaning "she loves me she loves me not" I want this shoot to be outside on the field because that's where all the daisies are. For my editing I want the flower and the figure to be in colour and the rest of the scene black and white. I didn't have any inspiration for this shoot or for most of my shoots as i have unique ideas.

Improvements
to improve my photo I would make the figure sit straight and choose a different figure because it blends into the flower too much.

to improve this image I would use less white tack because it is very obvious and kind of ruins the photo.

Evaluation
Overall I am very pleased with my result of this topic because it has brought out my creativity and can really be imaginative with anything with this shoot.
I have made a lot of progress in this topic as I have always use my technical information knowledge in all of my shoots.
I love to use colour in all my shoot because I can express myself.
I did not do any editing for these shoots as the camera angle and the way i set it out makes the photo most effective.
