Photography idea – isolation 

Tripod end of bed quick scene of everyday same 

Mix in background archived videos from summer, getting louder speeding pace, near end layer tho show overwhelming loud 

Show laptop looking at old summer clips, Layer shots of picture in bed over summer clips  

Incorporate skating and possible drone footage? – ‘drone footage’ on gimble, all archived and new footage on iphone, tripod time lapse on camera

Start in bedroom, attempting work, phone alarms etc. on laptop message pop up from friend of summer clips REPLACE, open look through few videos. fall back. Cut to live filming, skating on lane, walks by the beach, drone footage? Show large scenes of freedom nature – all alone. Cut to look like just watched videos on laptop, use one of same clips fade through from live to laptop. Lean into next sequence. Use tripod scene end of bed layered on top in centre of summer videos playing with their sound in back. Switch videos with speed of inner scene that makes sense. Bring slight emotion into inner scene and slowly darken from day to night through clips, start layering sound of fun summer videos, building up to loud halt. Close laptop in hard scene scene which now full page. 

Editing process

For my editing process I used Lightroom. Here is an example of how I edited these images.

Unedited photo
Added temperature and change the tint slightly
Changes the brightness contrast, decreased the highlights and whites and made the shadows and blacks richer
I then adjusted the texture and vibrance
I then added a vignette to help focus
