reservoir: For this shoot I want to focus more on the reflections capable of being caught within the water, this could be a rope floating above the water showing a more delicate and peaceful composition, or secondly to capture colours and more abstract photos of reflections echoed throughout the small waves and refractions of the water. I belive that this shoot Is combining my influence from both a past students work who looked at beauty within daily life. Also as the resivoir is a very open place, not only should I focus on the water, but the large sky from above, trying to capture a soft movement and also elements of vivid colour within the composition.
zoo: This shoot is a more lenient shoot, I believed I could choose a zoo as a possible location, due to the impact of possible new life, and also the more haiku influence of getting images from animals moving and forming colourful shapes and compositions, so birds and such. I was originally influenced by the image below, due to, movement and composition.
abstract nature shoot: This is the shoot which I believe will be the most transformative to my project. This Shoot is one which I have been thinking about exterminating with but haven’t experimented with yet. It is a more dynamic and difficult shoot in order to perfect, but this is the type of imagery which I belive is the most successful. I purpose to take this shoot somewhere like St Catherines, for the prime purpose of many trees surrounding the area, and too the ability to see all the colours and bounder-less extend that the nature reaches. I not only want to capture abstract throughout within different movements, and colour, but images which focus on shape and possibly more photos which cold be considered as fine art. One of the best subjects for ICM is trees. In general, you’ll see two types of abstract tree photos: a dizzying circle and a blurred streak. You can create the circle by rotating your camera during the exposure, and for the streak, simply move your camera up or down during the exposure.
self portraiture: I have spoken about this shoot many times, as I believe it will make a personal connection between what I myself deem as beautiful and as an almost exposure of my own emotions. I again have three basic ideas for this shoot as explained previously, being segmented, black and white, and using small discs and lighting in order to create lighting compositions on my own face. I belive this shoot will be an interesting look into what I deem to be imperfect and what beauty should be a standard of.
Older persons: I believe focusing on feature of myself is important, but it would also be beneficial to take photos of older people, focusing on different part of their eyes, ears and face all-together. I belive this could be a chance to symbolise almost an evolution of life and death ad the cycle of life, it shows a combining lives of people and nature, and I do belive this shoot Will once again show a more conceptual importance to my work, while too allowing separations of repetitive imagery within my own work. My primary inspiration for this shoot was a past students work. And it also reminds me of when I looked into the family tree of life, and moving and age signifying the beauty of life itself.
Light: Lighting painting is a type of long exposure that uses a source of light to create streaks on an image. You can create these streaks yourself with a flashlight, sparkler, etc., or you can move your camera while shooting a stable source of light, like a traffic light. Abstract slow shutter speed light, actually right light: A lot of abstract photography is created through ICM, where you deliberately move your camera while taking a photo. This movement can be quick and random, like camera tossing, or it can be a thoughtful long exposure. Either way, it’s a fun photography technique to play around with. this shoot is obviously one which is best to be taken at night time, this is evident to get the clear contrasts within the bright light and the firming compositions of other lights. I have two main ideas to which I could create this shoot, this being going somewhere which has a-lot of light as night time and showing a more abstract random composition of differing tonal ranges. And secondly like the image below forming compositions which are tightly thorough about and taking photos of a structure which is moving in a formative way repeatedly, this could perhaps be a complex light, or using many offer touches and creating the source of light myself.
rain: water is a concept form my last project I am very sued to observing, so I Believe technically I should not find this shoot to be too difficult. However I want to capture it not with the presence of peoples, but using its form to create its own composition and too influence a sense of peace and tranquility. The elements of light water, wind and fire Could really be a good start of what the natural elements to the world are so what are the most beautiful. Because of this I believe I should not only do this water shoot, going to the shower, and looking as real rain, but also look into the concepts of different natural elements within photography and how they can and should be perceived as beautiful.
reflection glass: I have in my past work experimented within the possibilities of using mirrors within work, but I have intentions to use it within a different context this time. I have experimented within the reflection of a cd previously, but within this shoot I want to try two techniques of directly flipping an image seamlessly, and then secondly using a larger mirror jut to extend lines and then further edit the outcomes, mimicking and showing a more rounded format of the images themselves.
Macro: nature close ups flowers, The macro shoot is the ability to photography beautiful objects such as nature, in such way where you are not even able to see the orin of what it once was, yet it is still beautiful. The opulence shoot I will capture and try and photography flowers close up, but I want this shoot to be a whole new perspective of natural elements and seeing them perhaps even in more of a scientific way.
opulence and luminance: For this opulence and luminance shoot I am evidently influenced by the the artists work: who focus’ on more abstract lighter work filled with different tonal colour of lights and darks. I have done a blog post about this shoot, so already have a primary narrative which I how I am and can achieve this.
golden hour: The book golden hour is a book created by Kim kang-He, With her second photobook “Golden Hour”, KangHee Kim captures the beautiful colours of the magic sixty seconds after sunrise and before sunset. Similar to her previous book “Magic”, Kim’s images are the result of intricate digital manipulation, blending elements of different captures to form surrealistic views: a street lamp illuminating skyscrapers from above, a man wading through a pool of clouds, subway stations leading into the bright evening sky and so on.
Her manipulations are never too glaring, and not there as a simple effect. Rather than questioning reality, Kim’s dreamy, longing scenes created from mundane situations are a form of urban escapism. To my mind this book is a proposition to capture the beauty within our surroundings, and possibly as she herself has explained a much more dream related aspect of work. The light used throughout this book is definitely the most important, the use of the light is the most abstract and important proposition the book can propose. Differing from my past experiences of haiku, this artists work can be much more developed into surrealism, and created through much more collage aspects. For this shoot I will do much similarly to this artists, and between The most significant ‘ golden-hours’ I will create imagery focusing very much on light yet also how I can both intertwin light within a composition and an interesting narrative.
Overall I believe Doing all fo these shoot will definitely create the final outcomes that will not only work successfully with each other, but too have an ability to work together with a narrative construct. my main aim is to create a theme where all the shoots work seamlessly together, and I am able to make a book and also a video, or perhaps a couple. These 11 shoots will take part over the two weeks, with myself going out everyday repeatedly to get these images. Due to the dependancy on weather the vast majority, there is no specific order which these outcomes will officially come to life. I will now continue to do further research into artists and differing lighting and concept themes which will allow my to find a purpose for each shoot and to find more inspiration to access the best possible outcomes as possible.
