Point of View
Exploring Point of View
1. Define Juxtaposition. Juxtaposition is shooting a subject from an "unexpected" angle. It is of two object places near each other or side by side usually for comparison.
2. In the text an example of Juxtaposition was given, looking up at an ant, what is another example? Another example is looking at a bird at eye level instead of looking up to the bird in a tree.
3. What is the visual impact on the viewer when using the Become the Subject technique? The visual impact on the viewer when using the Become the Subject technique is that it makes them feel like they are experiencing the event first hand.
4. Why does shooting from a low angle makes the subject feel in control? Shooting from a low angle makes the subject feel in control because it can impart a loss of control or the idea that the object is unobtainable.
5. Why does the viewer feel superior when shooting from above? The viewer feels superior when shooting from above because it gives the viewer the impression that they are the object of the attention in the photo, as though it was the viewer placed on a stage looking down towards the subject.
