Photo / Connotation Exercise


Danger: This represents danger as it is a shot of scaffolding which if taken away could mean that the building could damage people walking past.

Wealth and Desire: This eye level shot represents both wealth and desire because this is an expensive car so it would cost a lot of money to buy it, and because it is a nice car people would want this car fro themselves.






Friendship and Loneliness: This shot represents friendship and loneliness because there is a big friendship group and then one man on this own.



Love and Fear: This photo represents love because its main focus is a couple who are in love, it also represents fear because it is shot at such a high angle that it is from a scary height.
Purity:  This eye level shot represents purity because water is the purist mineral on the planet.

Weakness: This shot is a high angle shot to show the weakness in the person that is the main focus in this photo, this is clearly shown because the person takes up the majority of the photo.




Strength: This shot is a low angle shot to show that the gym builds up the strength in people. The fact that the weights are one their own shows that it is a strong individual.
Poverty: The shot in this photo is a high angle shot to show that the bin is an inferior object, which then further implies that this bin is part of poverty backed up by the dirty area that it is situated in.
Friendship: This shot is an eye level shot which all its light has focused on the group in the middle showing that their friendship is the main focus in this picture. The blacked out border further shows that further shows that all focus is on the group in the centre.
