Narrative: What is your story?
- 3 words – my daily life.
- A sentence – I will document elements of my daily life to show the realities of doing things I love.
- A paragraph – By documenting doing the things I love, I will capture the beauty of waking up early, riding horses and being at peace. Each morning I wake up and enjoy being one of the few people awake, everything is quiet. I want my photo book to encapsulate the peace and tranquility of my day. But I also want to show the realities. What actually happens, all the issues too, not just the good things. I want to highlight the issues I face with my identity too.
Design: Consider the following
- How you want your book to look and feel – sleek and refined
- Format, size and orientation – A4, landscape
- Binding and cover – soft cover
- Title – 5:15
- Design and layout – I want to create interesting juxtapositions that allow the viewer to question the subject matter
- Editing and sequencing – I am unsure of the complete sequence of the photo book but when I start editing it it will all fall into place
- Text – I am going to include elements from pieces of text that I have written throughout the book to add context to the images, at the end I am going to put my essay.
