SCPA Group Shot


In attempts of capturing the artisic playground that is SCPA, i have produced this image that portrays four of the art forms SCPA has to offer students. These four, being photography, visual arts, music, and dance I was able to catch a sense of what SCPA is all about. Although I am very proud of my work, I must admit that Iam displeased with this image's compostition and the lack of portrayal I intended the image to possess. If I were to change the image's compostition I would pull the person shown closest to the right had corner down farther so there would not be an illusion of a dancer posing out of the top of the person's head. One more thing I would change would be the closest figure's intent to convey photography. I wish I had a camera to have given her to hold and pretend to use during my shoot but I talked myself into approaching the portrayal of photography to be represented in a different way. Overall, Iam happy to see that I have captured some sort of essence SCPA has. In the process of developing my film and printing, I have realized that my skills in printing has improved since the beginning of the school year. Iam glad that I had the opportunity to work with strobe which was an interesting subject to learn about as well as work with and Iam also pleased with the sucess of this image.
