After my 1 to 1 with Andi I realise that I now need to go through all my images for the first brief to adjust the curves very slightly so that the tones all match and are much more coherent. I started with the two portraits below and theres a before and after. They look much better and I didn't realise how different...
James' lecture today was on beauty. I think I gained some knowledge and it made me question a few things about my own practice, which I can write about in my 3000 word essay. The main topic that stuck with me was my stance on my practice and how Taste fits within in. Where do I stand within the spectrum of wanting to...
I have previously seen my images as sets of two and three to make sure I am maintaining an aspect of consistency, however for the first time as I have near enough chosen my final 12 apart from one final portrait, I wanted to see them all together in one space to see how they look as a set. Some are finished and...
Today I hoped to capture a final still life and a portrait for my first brief. I hope to finish this as soon as possible to then be able to focus on my remaining diversity brief. 1/160 f/20 ISO 200 Canon 5Ds This is my best outcome from this shoot. The composition is strong and I can see it being used in a...
In our lecture on Tuesday James tasked us with producing a treatment for our new brief. I had made mood boards before and didn't find it very different apart from including some more words and direction to be able to sell my idea and provide more information other than visual. ...
I found Mark Sanders photography on It's Nice That, his personal project with Charlotte Heal titled 'Contours' combines close up cropped images of the body alongside clothed images, so carefully done that the lines of form match up perfectly and flow completely. I had to look twice when I first saw them because of the cleverness to align them so fluidly. Art director Charlotte Heal describes them as...
After shooting my moving image last tuesday and I had some time left in the studio and whilst waiting for my model to have her makeup done today I was all set up and just playing around and shot some extra still life images, I am still in the process of choosing my final four and having some more which fit my style...
Today I discovered Stories Collective, an online platform for showcasing the work of photographers, stylists, art directors, filmmakers, models and designers from across the globe in the form of fashion stories. They commission creatives to build visual narratives to fill their weekly online updates and bi monthly issues. After completing the Rough Cut brief and the investigation exploration brief last year, I am...
I came across the brand Loeffler Randall whilst browsing on pintrest, and loved the style and branding of their look books. The demonstrate really continuity across an entire brand and the style is very similar to that of mine and in a context where I want my work to be viewed. Both campaigns were shot by photographer Alex John Beck, and set design...
Yesterday I shot my moving image piece for the first project. my references are advertising videos from brands such as pretty little thing, boohoo and misguided. My aim before i started was for the shoot to be as fun as possible, so that my model looks like she's genuinely enjoying herself, and so that she didn't feel awkward dancing about on her own....
