This portfolio could contain whatever style of photography we wanted to do. I wanted to go the post-production route to try something new and different. What inspired me to try post-production was I saw a neon image on Google, and I thought it looked really cool and interesting. I like post-production work, and by doing something like this, it would broaden my knowledge in post-production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1600\" data-id=\"4615\" data-link=\"https:\/\/uniofglos.blog\/edandadphoto\/?attachment_id=4615\" data-url=\"https:\/\/sites.glos.ac.uk\/edandadphoto2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/159\/sites\/441\/2023\/06\/MC-2-683x1024.jpg\" data-width=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/uniofglos.blog\/edandadphoto\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/36\/2023\/06\/MC-2-683x1024.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" \/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1600\" data-id=\"4622\" data-link=\"https:\/\/uniofglos.blog\/edandadphoto\/?attachment_id=4622\" data-url=\"https:\/\/sites.glos.ac.uk\/edandadphoto2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/159\/sites\/441\/2023\/06\/MC-1-1-683x1024.jpg\" data-width=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/uniofglos.blog\/edandadphoto\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/36\/2023\/06\/MC-1-1-683x1024.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I was initially going to do 5 landscape and 5 portraiture images, but I preferred my portraiture images. So, I created 10 neon images, with 3 different shapes, triangle, rectangle and circle. It was hard to pick the shapes because not all shapes would fit with what I was trying to achieve, so I chose 3 common shapes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:55.33194%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1600\" data-id=\"4625\" data-link=\"https:\/\/uniofglos.blog\/edandadphoto\/?attachment_id=4625\" data-url=\"https:\/\/sites.glos.ac.uk\/edandadphoto2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/159\/sites\/441\/2023\/06\/MC-8-769x1024.jpg\" data-width=\"1202\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/uniofglos.blog\/edandadphoto\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/36\/2023\/06\/MC-8-769x1024.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" \/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:44.66806%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1600\" data-id=\"4627\" data-link=\"https:\/\/uniofglos.blog\/edandadphoto\/?attachment_id=4627\" data-url=\"https:\/\/sites.glos.ac.uk\/edandadphoto2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/159\/sites\/441\/2023\/06\/MC-10-621x1024.jpg\" data-width=\"970\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/uniofglos.blog\/edandadphoto\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/36\/2023\/06\/MC-10-621x1024.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>4 out of my 10 images have text. I wanted to give the text a go and see how it would look with the images and I was surprised and glad that it worked. But my main issue was colour, I didn&#8217;t want to be repetitive, and not a lot of colours suit a neon glow, for example brown, brown wouldn&#8217;t work as well as blue or pink, so I had to choose bright colours, colours that would pop against black and stand out, and I think I achieved that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For this module, we were asked to create a portfolio with at least 10 images.
