Project 2 Post Critique Reflection

After seeing some of my classmates photos and hearing what they have to say I think that if I were to do this project again I would not the frame the photos so carefully.  In my photos I was really trying to get a clear take on the emotion and focused on the subject. To a certain extent it worked well, but I think I lacked a little bit in emotion. What my photos, I thought, did do well was depict frustration. The responses I got were that I successfully got my emotion across, but did not evoke emotion in the viewer all that much.

For the most part the reaction I got from my work was as expected.  For my next project I think I’m going to try and use a greater variety of design elements.  If I had to do this project again, I think I would try to evoke frustration in the viewer by making the frame of the photo askew, or just a little bit off, to frustrate the viewer. Also, I know this project was supposed to be more about color rather than content, but what color or what types of color shows frustration?
