Processes and Techniques

Processes in sculpting vary, and always depend on the
materials used. There is cast sculpture, where a material, such as
bronze, begins as a clay form that is cast in a mould to produce a given
shape; there is also carved sculpture, such as wood or stone.
Two distinct methods have emerged; an additive process,
where material is added again and again to build up the form,
for example with clay, and the subtractive process, where
the artist removes or subtracts materials to create the form,
as in marble or stone carving.

world could includes:
• Advertising photography: photographs made to illustrate and usually
sell a service or product. These images, such as pack shots, are
generally done with an advertising agency, design firm or with an
in-house corporate design team.

incorporates models. Fashion photography emphasizes the clothes or
product, glamour emphasizes the model. Glamour photography is
popular in advertising and in men's magazines. Models in glamour
photography may be nude, but this is not always the case.

robberies and murders. A black and white camera or an
infrared camera may be used to capture specific details.

typically commonplace objects which may be either
natural or man-made.

advertising use. Food photography is similar to still life
photography, but requires some special skills.
• Editorial photography: photographs made to illustrate a story or idea
within the context of a magazine. These are usually assigned by the
magazine.

photography. Photographs made in this context are accepted as a
documentation of a news story.
• Portrait and wedding photography: photographs made and sold
directly to the end user of the images.
• Landscape photography: photographs of different locations.
• Wildlife photography: it demonstrates life of the animals.
• Photo sharing: publishing or transfer of a user's digital
photos online.
 Steps in Photography

Choosing the subject- requires the wise judgment and artistic sense
of the photographer.

Mechanical one- a light sensitized film contained in a darken box is

exposed to the light from the object being photographed.

Chemical one- after the film has been exposed, it is treated with a
series of chemical solutions to develop the film and produce a
permanent negative. A photographic paint is produced from the
negative.

Baby Ama.

unusual things that make the audience laugh.

You Don't Mess with the Zohan, Pedro Penduko, and

sets (man-made places in film studios where the film is made) are
all designed to add to the feeling.

sa Banga, and Feng shui

people who have to make a big decision in their life. They tell
stories about relationships between people. They usually follow a
basic plot where one or two main characters (each actor plays a
character) have to 'overcome' (get past) an obstacle (the thing
stopping them) to get what they want.

Abakada Ina, and Bata Bata Pano ka ginawa?

(surprises).

worlds, who must overcome obstacles to be together. It is always
light-hearted, but may include some emotion.

Chance, The Promise, and I Will Always Love You
