Evaluation

Your final Task is to evaluate the work you have just exhibited. You will need to
discuss the following points about your work, the exhibition and the campaign. Use
the following paragraph headings to help you.

1. What are you thoughts on the finished product:? (50 Words Min)
 I felt that the pictures were a little bring as they didn't have much imagination being that they were just figurines standing there. I need to focus on putting more props in to give the figurines more detail such as a park bench or a book to sit on. The pictures need a little more planning in future.

2. Does it look how you originally planned? (50 Words Min)
Not exactly, I felt I needed to choose more better places for the pictures to have a little more detail instead of using whats already there where I need to move things around to make scenery.

3. What do you think about the qualities of your work? In Focus, Good bad light etc? (50 Words Min)
The lighting was perfect so I think I chose the right time of day to give the right amount of lighting for the pictures. Either way the lighting was good for the pictures, the focus used made the pictures look too sharp starting to make some of the pixels show.

4. Give your ideas about comments from others, eg audience, peers, tutors, client (50 Words Min)
dracula 2 is out of focus.
the second to bottem is out out of focus 
Some of the pictures were out of focus so I will need to work on pictures needing more focus. I feel that in future I need to do extensive planning in locations, choice of figurines and pictures.

Slinkachu Research and Pictures


Slinkachu is a street artist born in 1979 in the UK and started the “Little People Project” in 2006.
He takes pictures of small toy models in everyday life. He says that he found the models under his bed, most of them are unpainted so he remodelled them to look more modern to fit in with the setting.
He gets his props from ebay.
