Photobook Specification

Narrative: What is your story?
Describe in:

  • 3 words – Circles, Difference & Similarity
  • A sentence – Exploring circles in different environments and in different ways.
  • A paragraph – For this project I will be responding to circles. Maybe not that simple… I would like to explore a shape we rarely take notice of in our daily lives and I would like to use different techniques and environments to share what people miss so easily yet appear everywhere. The aim is to perhaps inspire people to look around and enjoy the world around them and take notice of the little details, like circles, that appear everywhere. The similarity being the shape, the differences; being the environment, location, angle, photographic technique and the urban/rural landscape.

Design: Consider the following

  • How you want your book to look and feel – Landscape, similar width to height, perhaps slightly longer width but only marginally, hard back and strong binding that doesn’t have much image lost in the gap.
  • Paper and ink – Not matte but not glossy, in between.
  • Format, size and orientation – Landscape, ever so slightly longer width than height.
  • Binding and cover – Visible binding, hard back with printed images on the cover.
  • Title – “Latitude” or “Meridian” or “Annulus” or “Ecliptic”
  • Design and layout –
  • Editing and sequencing –
  • Images and text – Little text other than title and all images will be the very best, not a huge amount, short but sweet.
