Shoot Six - Work Record

Plans for the shootWhat you hope to achieve. NB (those first two sections should be written before the shoot in order to help you clarify your ideas and to ensure you have all that you need).  This is followed up by 
What I actually achieved (with two evaluated pictures - equivalent to the evaluation section of a work diary) In this section you must record how you took the photograph in terms of camera settings and the visual outcome (did you achieve the type of photographs you wanted, what are the denotations and possible connotations associated with the images)
What I am doing to do next (this might mean something that occurred whilst doing that shoot that you want to develop or maybe even a change in direction, etc).
This is an important section, where most of your marks will be gained as you will demonstrate your ability to analyse and refine your work.  

Plans for the shoot:
In this shoot I intend to do something similar to some of my previous shoots, like shoot 3 with the screws, I really enjoy working with shadows and I think that it might work with more weird shaped objects like lego mini figures. 
What I hope to achieve:
I hope that I will be able to get a new quality shoot, some of these shoots can take a while to set up, so hopefully this one will be a bit quicker. I think I want to use shoots like shoot two in my exam, so I hope that this will give me more ideas of what to shoot.

What I actually achieved:
In this shoot I took lots of photographs of both lego and lego mini figures, however I ended up preferring just the lego mini figures photographs, as the shadows were a lot more complex than the lego block shadows. I learnt that these type of photographs work best with more complex shapes.
ISO: 200
F/3.8
Shutter Speed: 1/60
I love this photograph because there is so many colours in it, the colours are also very bright because lego is usually used by children who want to play with brightly coloured toys. A lot of the mini figures are holding objects as well which adds even more complexity to them.

ISO: 200
F/4
Shutter Speed: 1/60
I love this image because the shadows are a lot clearer and defined than in the previous photograph. I also like how the background is so plain, while they are brightly coloured, the contrast is really nice.

What am I going to do next:
Next, I will be focusing on photography that looks like this, with lots of shadowing on it like in this image. I think that it worked well and I would like to create something similar in the studio.
