How well have ideas developed? I have found it easy to find inspiration in photographers that use colour, as well as linking the topic to religious concepts such as the 7 Deadly Sins.

Are ideas explored and selective appropriate to intentions? I have explored my ideas directly by responding to artists with the same ideas.

Are they reviewed and refined? No, I am still considering ideas as I research. For example, after researching the psychological side of emotions, I decided that I want to look into Freud and the psychoanalysis theory in more detail.

How many responses/ shoots? I have completed 1 official shoot and have been taking pictures of things I find interesting when on the go. It becomes more personal when I capture the colour and emotions that surround me in my own life.

Command of camera skills/ photographic techniques and processes: My images have mainly required me to change exposure, especially for the images taken at night time as they were originally too dark.

Understanding of composition/ considering quality of light: I have experimented with different lighting by capturing colour both in daylight and night light.

What are the overall quality of the images? I think I could re-visit the areas shown in my images, for example the phone box could be more exposed or I could show more reflections of the phone like I did so in one image.

How do they respond to research? I have used my research into colour theory in selecting what to photograph. It has aided me in the choice of clothing that I will ask a subject to wear in order to portray the mood I want e.g. pink jacket in shoot to show the love between an owner and their dog.

How do they relate to artists references? In my photoshoot, I have taken direct inspiration choosing to capture a similar subject of a dog to portray the same emotion that the artist had portrayed – love.

How do you interpret the exam theme? My interpretation of the exam theme was the variation of emotion that people show yet there is similarity in that there are behaviours that everyone can recognise reflect a certain emotion.

At this stage, I believe my work is at Level 3 as I have not yet published my research or shown links in my photographic responses.
