In Week 5, we began to look at White Balance and Colour Temperature in photography and film. As part of our skills development, we learned the definitions of both methods and why they are used. On Monday, we made notes about Colour Temperature on the Kelvin Scale and the different White Balance settings. We also looked at different examples so that we had a clearer understanding of what the images may look like when using these modes. On Tuesday, we used our newfound knowledge when taking example photographs in groups. As a group, we took several photos using the different modes in multiple locations – one interior photo with interior lighting, one interior photo with exterior lighting, and one exterior photo with exterior lighting. We carefully chose each location so that we knew we were capturing each image in the correct light. After reviewing our images, we uploaded them onto our OneDrive. On Wednesday, we began to study our images in more depth when explaining if we thought they were successful, if they had clearly conveyed the setting that we used and what we may need to do to be successful next time.
For our Research task this week, we were challenged to question ourselves about our own beliefs and feelings, through the Who Am I project. I have started to think about my skills, values, aspirations, and interests. I also considered what my ideal job would be and why. I will continue to ask myself these questions so that I have a clear vision of what I would like to do in the future. For our Media Industry task this week, we were asked to write a mission statement about what we would like to achieve and aspire to do in the future. This task allowed me to remind myself why I do what I do everyday and that every step counts towards getting to the place you want to be.
