Still Life: A work of art depicting inanimate subjects; food, flowers, dead animals, plants, rocks, shells, etc. Or man made objects, glasses, books, coins etc.

I read an article on technology and how Jenny Holzer projects messages through technology like electronic billboards, and big screens, buildings, etc.

As for my project, I was trying to rebuild that concept through using a television. I was trying to convey the message of technology and how it has a positive and negative. The positive is shown through all the new creations, phones, cameras, laptops, and the darkness represents how further technology goes. For the negative, the darkness represents how it could be hurting us, because we depend so much in it.I did like how it came out, I just wished I could have used a billboard or a nice building. I think it reflects it pretty well.

I learned how to focus in on objects according to depth, however it was very difficult. You get the three effects by changing your f-stops, putting the first one in focus with a low f-stop, and to get all focus you raise the f-stops.

My initial concept was vampire however I ended up using scary concepts that popped up in my head and I photoshopped them onto my face and I think it came out well.
