SLINKACHU
The little people project began in 2006 by using miniature figures to portrait everyday life. Slinkachu remodeled, painted his figures making them even more intriguing using handmade items bought often at eBay or a arts and craft store.
Slinkachu often takes his pictures in different countries like France,London his ideas come from thinking, and lots of other photographers have been inspired by him since then. |

I've bought my very own Slinkachu figures.
Slinkachu work
Slinkachu uses colour that are vibrant mostly red and blue to contrast with the grey background which draws us in.The pictures background is unfocused.The aperture is perfect and also the picture has a small depth of field. The focus point is focused on the figure.The picture of the buildings gives a nice symmetry and the reflection on the water adds the calm effect.
The picture is taken in worms eye view

Favourite Slinakchu Image
This is my favourite Slinkachu picture because the mood of the picture is showing us that the little girl is terrified. I know this because of the composition of the figure.
The picture is in worms eye view as the camera is on the ground. I think the tone is dull and this is because it reflects with the death of the bee and the fear of both of them.
The exposure is perfect as it's not under or over exposed. The picture is split in half giving it a nice balance. Additionally Slinkachu uses the colour of his figures which are vibrant blue to contrast with the grey background and draws the person looking at the image in.

Once again Slinkachu uses the colour red and blue on his figures to draw us in. The exposure is perfect and also the artist uses a shallow depth of field to make the focus point on the two miniature figures.
Slinkachu takes this picture with the cars being birds eye view underneath to make the composition of the figures appear above.

In this Image the colour is vibrant to draw us into the figures. Slinkachu uses the rule of thirds using the can. the tone of the image is grey and dull because of the background.
Slinakchu uses a small depth of field to make the focus point in the centre of the image.

Shoot 1.
Final Image
second attempt of Slinkachu, I decided to use these two conjoined figures. Two parents wandering about in town asking for directions because they're lost as you can see in the first picture.
I really find the exposure to be really good.The focus point is definitely focused on the two figures.The picture is slightly took in birds eye view. |
shoot 3
my plan is to go outside and use a puddle to take a picture.

Final Image
I used depth of field on the second picture and third, so it really focuses on the main important object in the picture however I dislike how uncreative it is also how I could've took a picture of the surrounding like slinkachu does with his splendid photographs.
The reflection on the ground connects with my first analysis of Slinkachu photograph I purposely do this as I work in the style of the artist.

Worst
These pictures is about are about a women at a holiday staring at the sunset, I used my Ipad as a background however the picture's main focus point wasn't on the Slinkachu figure, this would be a splendid example of depth of field however wasn't my main plan on this picture as I wanted the figure in focus and not see the book I used for the Slinkachu figure and Ipad to line up.
Best
This is the best picture because the image is in focus.
LADY IN GREEN
Plan
My plan is to go outside and use a green figure on a leaf to make the picture.

worst
This is HORRIBLE because of the focus point,focusing at the background rather than the slinkachu figure the exposure is ok and this is a good example of 'depth of field'
WONDERFUL...
The exposure is perfect , I really like the depth of field as the background is out of focus . The slinkachu figure is in focus which means the focus point is good and hardly can see the blue tack .The mood of the image is quite peaceful and nature because of the green colour i've used so I decided this is a WONDERFUL!
MAN FLYING AWAY WITH A KITE !?
HORRIBLE
Plan
My plan is to take a picture of a slinkachu figure flying away in a kite.

The slinkachu figure is not on focus only the background,and the dark picture below is underexposed as to why it's in this category .
This is the worst as its so underexposed you can hardly see anything on the picture, you can see the cameras flash as it has been reflected from the glass .
BETTER
These pictures have good exposure the kite/above is in focus however the slinkachu isn't which could've led to better pictures and in the wonderful category .
The Slinkachu figure is out of focus as it's meant to be in focus however the background is good, I really like the shadow on the left side as it adds a much more intriguing effect .
WONDERFUL
These are all my favorite as it was hard to choose because all of them has good exposure, good focus point, the ISO is and this is a creative idea because of the handmade kite, I had to change my locations as the wind was really strong on that day and figure out which direction it was coming from .
Inspiration
worst image
This is the worst image because the exposure isn't good and also you can see the two cutting boards.
bEST IMAGE
This is the best image because the blue and orange colour really compliment each other. and the colour of the green and red figures of the slinkachu makes it stand out. Futhermore the depth of field is shallow.

Evaluation
The artist I've researched is Isaac coordal and Slinkachu I've discovered them through google . I've learnt through the artist Slinkachu that he really does use blue ,green and orange colours on his slinkachu figures to make them stand out.
My first thought of Slinkachu was that it was really interesting .
I particularly responded to the work of Slinkachu images because they are imaginative and skillful . I've used the same technique such as the birds eye view.
I found it challenging to come up with ideas that Slinkachu hasn't done yet as I didn't want to copy his work.
I developed my investigation by making props such as the kite and using fruits such as oranges .
I was hoping to create the same little people project , It worked and I think I've sucessfully explored this theme.
If I had more time I would try the Isaac Cordal by using dull backgrounds and puddles.
