Experiment with noise

The noise has been changed by 5% each time, from 5% - 30 %
I think between under 15% is the right amount of noise, as past that the image gets impared.

Final Image

I think this is one of the better photos, as the compasition adds emphasis to it, and how she's is stood facing away from the camera suggests she is 'faceless' and that she has no identity. Also, the way she is stood and the tonal range as it goes into shadow. The way it is pixalated almost looks like the wires are going into her spine. I also think adding noise was interesting, because on first impressions the photo looks bad quality, but after looking at it, you can tell it's intentional.

I got positive feedback from the initial ideas and photos and the feedback I got helped me decide between putting the image in black and white or adding noise.

I wanted to show a link between people and technology with covering a person in wires, and how people are dependent on technology. I didn't show the face, as then it could represent any generic person.

I think this is a strong image, so i would use this on A2 on it's own. The photo is 30 p/i since it's going to be blown up large. The noise is Uniform 10%.

Final Selections

- Crop
- Change Image size to 20 p/i
- Add Noise (Uniform 7%)

Editing

The first photo is changing the image size then adding noise (uniform 7%). The second photo is adding noise (uniform 50%) then changing the image size.  The second one loses some of the colour, but looks more metallic. I think the first one is better as it looks like a cracking TV.

Final image editing

- Crop so the photo has a consistant background and has good compasition
- Add Noise (this photo is Uniform 50%)
- Change the resolution to so it pixalates (this photo is 20p/i)
