I wanted to use typologies within my book as I thought it would create a sense of similarity within each experiment however, it also consisted of variation as the images are in someway different to each other even tho they are capturing the same subject. furthermore, displaying my images as a typology in a way creates a contact sheet and further allows me to display my images in a creative way. As I had taken some of my images on film I was left with the negatives which I believe in a way is a different type of contact sheet. I also wanted to incorporate the negatives within the book. However, the images on the negatives where very small and hard to see which gave me the idea of making my own negatives but as a contact sheet. These where my outcomes.
I decided on incorporating one of the contact sheet as the front cover as it creates a very documentary style feel to it which I wanted to heavily focus on when producing and displaying my images. By having this as the front cover it doesn’t give away too much about what the book is about allowing for an element of surprise when opening it and looking at it for the first time. Furthermore, I didn’t believe that any of the images from the first contact sheet were strong enough to have single images within the book which is why I incorporated this contact sheet as I believe that focusing on the sport itself was also important and I feel will create a sense of variation throughout the book.
