Having fun with Forced Perspective

For this project, we chose a flower, toy which we placed closer to the camera. Then we got our classmates to stand in the distance so that they appear the same size as our toy.

We used the smallest aperture on our lens. In this case it was f36. We focused our

camera not on the flower, toy or the person, but somewhere in between.

The depth-of-field or what is commonly as the zone of sharpness, made both the flower, toy and the person appear sharp and therefore believable.

We also told our person to look straight ahead as if they were interacting with the flower, toy. to make it more realistic and believable.
