SMART Objectives

-

Smart Objective,

By the end of the project, I will create a photographic project which will be a collection of between 6-10 images. I will be using the concept of architectural photography inspired by Michael Wolf. I will download an app to improve and develop my understanding of manual photography techniques. I will frame and compose my images in-camera. These will be in black and white and will quality check in Lightroom or Photoshop. 

 

SMART OBJECTIVES FOR THE PROJECT.

Smart objectives tend to help someone achieve their goals successfully and are organized. The acronym SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-bound.

The following image explains each meaning of the word, the image also explains the DOES and DON'TS when it comes to achieving SMART goals.

When it comes to setting specific goals for your task you should state exactly what you want to accomplish. Ask yourself the 6 'W' question; Who, What, Where, When, Which, and why. 

Whether you are managing a project or a task you need to have a measurable objective this may best be achieved by asking yourself how well you will demonstrate your work and know that you have achieved your goal.

When it comes to attainable it's good to always work to a goal that is challenging but possible to have the solution. Always write down the steps or the progress of your work.

RELEVANT/REALISTIC- always set goals that you can achieve, by this you need to be honest by yourself since you know your capability 

Lastly, you need to set deadline for your work by doing this you will achieve the time-bound objectives.

MY SMART OBJECTIVE FOR THE PROJECT.

Specific- by the end of the deadline I want to achieve doing a thorough research of photography, learn about different types of photography work. For this project, I will focus more on architectural photography.

Measurable- I will frequently check my blog to see the comments and feedback from my tutor. By doing this I will know whether I am doing the correct thing for my project and whether am achieving my goals of the project.

Attainable- I will keep notes on my progress in order not to miss anything. Before working on the project I will sign off the project with my tutor.

Realistic- I will set goals for my project by being honest with side considering my capabilities.

Time- I will do my very best to submit my work before the deadline. Since the deadline is 17th  March I will probably submit my work on 15th march then I will have a day to go through the work and submit it on time.


Objectives during photographing;

1.To use different software to edit the images such as lightroom and photoshop.

3.To always check the lighting before shooting.

4.To improve my manure camera settings skills by using correct settings

For our self study this week we were asked to research designers, filmmakers, photographers or writers who are using sketchbooks or journals in our subject area. Since my subject area is on photography I am going to do a research on photographers, look at their work and analyse their working process and also discuss what I have learnt from this research. Below are example of photographers i have been looking at their work; 1.Eric Kim Source;   Eric Kim image Eric Kim is a street photographer currently based in Los Angeles.

I started by researching  Andrew Prokos' white and black photography. His Ultra-high-definition black and white photos are known for their sharpness and clarity. In his photography work, Andrew Prokos focuses on design to capture the wonders of the urban atmosphere and its typically underappreciated intricacies. In his cityscapes, Prokos’s pictures lengthen the sense of marvel associated with degreed detail in an urban skyline. In his subject area pictures, that he's best famous, he captures the customarily unnoticed aspects of contemporary and style of architecture. Prokos uses each medium- and large-format camera, typically using long exposures to capture wealthy details and imbue a way of motion. His work feels modern. He follows an extended lineage of photographers who launched to capture urban landscapes and design, together with Berenice Abbott and Weston. Although his photography work focuses on urban settings, Prokos remembers the methodology of the good nature creative...
