Of composition, shoes & rule of thirds.

Another assignment we did on composition.
We used a cut-out frame and placing our 'subject' in it following the 'rule of thirds' (click to know more) known in paintings, photography, etc..

The red dots where the lines intersect are the "power points"  

I chose the subject matter, shoes.


A glimspe into the mind of a bowl of salsa.....
Interviewer: So, tell us a little bit more on your experience carrying out this assignment.

Salsa: While doing this assignment I have to say, it was one of the most awkward situations I ever got caught in. so far

Interviewer: Hm, how so?

Salsa: Well, crouching down amidst shoes, bending down into shoe racks. One hand stretching out in front, holding what seems to be a rectangular cut-out probably made out of card, the other struggling to take a picture with a dodgy phone camera (because of that I apologize in advance for the bad quality) and the concentration on the face of a very, very constipated person - OH, AILSA.


The amount of stares I got from people, even children! Gosh, they probably thought I was mad. The nicer ones would think that I just had a weird compulsive obsession with shoes. I could almost hear them thinking "What the heck.. is she doing....." - but hey, that's all part of being a future designer, right? No shame, no shame...

Nevertheless, I enjoyed this assignment & the learning process very much.

Anyways! Less talk, more walk! I now finally present to you...  My work!

Enjoy!

Love,

Salsa.
