Breaking The Rules – The Rule of Manipulation
https://www.huckmag.com/art-and-culture/photography-2/eight-photography-rules-worth-breaking/
For this project I have chosen the third rule suggested in the article by Lewis Bush. I chose this rule because I think that I could but a lot of conceptual and abstract meaning into my images
Mood board for the project
The main aim for this project is to show the way the way that images can be manipulated to show things in a different way, can can be changed by the producer to give of there personal feelings on a certain topic and they way that this change influence and effect others. Rather then photographing the whole view of different scenes I am going to take a more abstract view, I am going to do this by the way that I frame and capture my images. The mood boards above reflect some of the final images that I would like to produce, I have also decided that I want to use a a film camera for part of the project as I want to manipulate/experiment the chemicals that are used in film cameras to create different outcomes of images.
For the political landscape aspect of this project I am going to focus on nature, as my landscape and the way that nature and modern buildings are co-existing. For my first shoot I am planning to focus on colour and double exposure to manipulate my photographs, to give a dreamy feel to my images. I will manipulate the images by focusing on small sections of the image and then by merging two images together. Or another idea will be to blend to photos together, I have one image and plain such as a sunset of a small abstract part of an image paired with a normal landscape image that would see everyday. I want the photos to have a colour palette of browns oranges and yellows as it is turning into autumn all of the leaves are going to change.
