Evaluation -

Within my virtual galleries, I have considered a variety of key elements that contribute and play a role into the overall feel and effect of my book. The themes of each of the galleries are based around the whole theme of ‘UNION’ as our overall theme for the exam project and they are a nice way of representing my images and different stories behind each image, and the photographs were taken to represent a new form of union within each set of images. Each image was chosen for its representation of our theme and how they each individually signify a different form of being united and together they tell a story about unions as a whole and how there are so many types of Union within the world. The virtual Galleries were created using photoshop using the templates we were provided with in the image transfer folder. I made sure to include features such as my extra page spreads that I used in the photobook as they were a key feature to the explanation of my images. In comparison to a real gallery, I feel like the virtual format allowed for me to be overly creative with how I presented my images but also had some down sides as I feel like I needed to have more technical skills in order to make the galleries as best as I could. However, overall I believe the gallery successfully showcases my best images and does a good job at communicating and representing the theme of ‘UNION’ to the audience.
