Zoo Photo-shoot Plan

Based on my initial ideas and research of artists. I have decided that I will visit Jersey Zoo (Durrel) in order to photograph some of the animals and plants with the intention of having imagery of natural pattern, colour and form which I can use when creating photomontages. Also I would like to have the new butterfly enclosure as the main focus of my photo shoot since this would be a definite source of natural pattern, colour and form as I suggested as a focus; also when doing my initial research I noticed that butterflies were frequently used as part of the work I was looking at and worked really nicely in a chaotic aesthetic.

How will I approach this shoot?

Brief: photograph natural primary source imagery to work with in my photomontages

Camera settings: average to low exposure 400-200 ISO etc…

Location: Jersey zoo (Durrel)

Subjects: Animals (Particularly butterflies and birds) and Plantlife

Lighting: Natural lighting outdoors, camera flash in more shaded/enclosed areas
