Cinema Sub-Shoot Blur Experiment

Here I will be exploring the use of blur effects on Photoshop, by doing this it will allow me to further develop my images and editing process when doing future shoots. Here I intend to use iris and tilt blur to create a focus on any part of the image I want so that it becomes the focal point of the image. To do this I will be going to the cinema to photograph empty chairs, to which I will be attempting to make the center of focus the scattered food or drink. My inspiration for this comes from a general use of depth of field used in my camera, I found that this when taking other imagery really helped pinpoint certain aspects, and so wanted to incorporate this into my topic of secrets, codes and conventions. Here are my outcomes:

Here is my editing process for how each image was done: I used Photoshop because it allowed me a variety of different blurs which could be used to change the perspective of how each image would be viewed, by giving me more choice it really allowed me to try with different method to find what I wanted. By controlling the depth of blur and what I wanted blurred, it gave me full control over everything as it made it possible to pin-point certain details in the image I wanted to remove or be unnoticed, whilst giving me the outcome desired.
