In todays lesson I did a studio shoot using M&M's to show colour. I used a white background to highlight the vibrant colours of the M&M's. I decided to use the brown packet of M&M's as I liked the use of dark brown & vibrant colours in my previous shoot.
If I was to do this shoot again I would experiment with making an animation to make it look like the M&M's are actually exploding out of the bag.
If I was to take this photograph again I would experiment with the different angles & focus more on the composition of the photographs.
This photograph shows the M&M's from a different point of view, the angle of the photograph being directly in front allows you to see into the packet and you can see the difference between the shadowed M&M's inside and the vibrant ones outside. I used a white background and the boom lighting as its an overhead lighting it lights up the whole subject.
If I was to take this photograph again I would think more about the arrangement of the M&M's and the composition of them as some of them are slightly cut out.
Inspiration:
My inspiration for this shoot came from my previous shoot as I liked the vibrant colours of the M&M's, therefore I wanted to use them in a different way. I also liked the contrast between the bright and dark colours, for example: in my previous shoot I used dark ground coffee beans & a vibrant M&M.
As a result of this shoot I am going to look more into showing colour through food as I have been looking at Martin Parrs photography & he tends to use a lot of food to show colour through photography. For example:
