Photoshoot 1:

The first photoshoot in my personal investigation will introduce the setting of the current ‘spare room’:

• Explore lighting in the room using shutters/curtains for best ambience,
• Highlight bareness and clear lack of use of the room itself,
• Opportunities to show its previous uses as a spare bedroom and playroom,
• The first steps towards the redecoration of the room begin with new paint and simple wall decorations,
• Portraits of subject painting,
• Close ups of paint/card swatches/brushes/rollers/paint on hands,
• (Paint/card swatches for photo-book).

Photoshoot 2:

The next photoshoot in my personal investigation will take place in a small social setting. The aim of this shoot is to compose several images, both portraits and close ups of objects:

• Two parts of the shoot: day time/night time,
• Explore lighting in the car both during the day and at night; shade from trees/street lights/weather/car lights/glare,
• Portraits of subjects socialising,
• Use of wing/rear view mirrors to frame the shot,
• Close ups of objects used by subjects/interior of car/reflection in mirror/chiaroscuro,
• Eye contact/posing/candid,
• Take photographs from both inside and outside the car/windows up or down/headlights on,
• (Used pay card/muddy shoe print for photo-book).
