Alternative Lens Effects

4/1/2021

 
Picture
In this project we are going to mess around with lens effects. There are several different types of strange lens filters out there that create these interesting effects, but for this project we are going to find and/or make our own. Think about making a soft lens effect with vaseline (don't you DARE put it directly on the lens) or colored cellophane in front of the lens. What about crystals that make kaleidoscope effects, or fairy lights, or even a good old CD. How can we add interesting effects to our photos with items we find in the house? 
Assignment:
For this assignment you will photograph 50 digital frames with different lens effects. Consider what you want to create and try to be creative with what you find in your home to use. I don't care what effect you do use, but you cannot take a straight photo for this project. Remember you can do soft lens effect, halation effect, crystals, CD's, fairy lights, cracked glass, small mirrors, zoom the lens while photographing...anything at all that alters the image inside the lens.

Steps:
• If you are using crystals or CD's you may need a light source (hello sunshine!) to help throw the light inside the crystal 
• Portraits work well for this but are not required
• Many of the objects you hold in front of the lens are small, so be sure to zoom the lens in so we can't see the item
• If you want to try the vaseline effect you HAVE to put plastic wrap in front of the lens...nothing is to go directly onto the lens!!!!!
