Post Crit.

Crit went well. I feel like my piece was interesting. People seemed to like it - I only heard good things. I found myself wishing again that people would be more open about their criticisms. Most people in the class had nothing to say - did they think it was a hideous mess? was it not compelling? I wonder if I printed it bigger if I might have had more of a response; although there was definitely a crowd around my image during the break at one point because I was trying to get by and I couldn't (not a bad thing I suppose).

I dunno. There's not really much I would have done differently. I picked up Geffelers Supervisions on the way to crit. and afterwards I gave it a good look through. I realized the way he handles walls is very different that what I did. I angled the camera to get more-almost 6 feet of wall in some places. Geffeler it seems does not. When one looks in detail at his images one can see how little of the walls he actually captures. maybe 12 or 18 inches in some 2-3 feet in others, but either way it's much less than I did. Capturing less wall gives the impression to the view that he/she is higher up than when lots of wall is captured. Its like I was using a wider lens so I was only about 8 feet above my room, where if it had been done with Geffeler's wall style it would have looked more like 40 feet. Next time.
