Workshops!

"Framing: Message/Meaning, led by Rachel Ortas"

You will be using the fold-in technique (used by MAD magazine) to explore how
framing changes the meaning/message of an image. We will use Elephant and
Castle for inspiration.
Bring either a camera/phone camera/images for collage/sketch book.

 It was very funny to see how frame change the world when you are going around city. One captured moment sometimes absolutely changing when you can see what's happening around it.


So, check it out. 
Frame the world

Thanks Bart for picture :)

 

Fold-in comics, I really like it :) Not just the picture - the meaning of the written phrase is changing..

..when it's folded!

I started from Bart >:)

Random guy from the Art's newspaper

Does it make any sense ? X)

I love reflections, started to make a frame in the frame)

like this

It was pretty hard to make this shot, because I'm holding iphone in one hand and frame in another and the 'photo' button is at the bottom of the phone screen.. :) Anyway, I'm quite happy with the results, lovely abstract geometry.

Also, I looked for the photoes on the computer and understood that visually part of the shot which is captured with the frame is looking different from the whole other picture. It looks really like another world :)

There is one of such examples. Captured advertisment billboard - and my hand with the frame lookes quite photoshoped there :D

There I tried to make a contrast between image of happy smiling peoples IN the frame and refurbishment works and litter OUT of it

people are also framing around

Framed picture with bird and cctv camera - for me looks like prison. Also like the composition geometry in this picture.

Showing the contrast between blossom tree and trash bins

Just some abstract colored brick wall

White stripes on this car actually reminds me yellow road stripes) But roads are not usually so shiny as this car's surface)

"Do not let your friendship die on the road" But it's interesting what people will think about this image without the context of it, does it communicate?

seashell as the ashtray

I also captured a piece of the bus with the guy, but he still looks funny)

The intention was to frame the arrow IN (which shows the moving direction (moving forward?)) and the red light with opposite meaning (stop, no way) OUT the frame

Simple - barbed wire and a blossom tree

I like that I catch the part of the wheel there..

..and there! It help's to create an understanding that the car is actually passed or will appear in the next second IN the frame

Abstraction in a fRRRame!

The difference between empty lawn and busy road with a lot of noisy pupils :)

Actually, it's children school , and some kind of refurbishment is going around. So, we can't see all the dust and litter out of the frame and enjoying beautifull English architecture in the frame

I just liked this sunny empty street..

Busy - free, messy - clean :)

That's how it was.

People of the world, let me know if you are reading this blog X)
