Who

People/artists at my school in their natural environment. Most of my photos will be focused on one person in the image like the majority of Anthony Kurtz’ photos but there may be a few where there might be two or more as the art rooms can get quite busy depending on whether there are lessons happening at the time of the photoshoot.

What

The background behind them has to relate to their life/work somehow, whether its art on the wall behind them or just the art room itself.

When

In the day time as that’s when there is the most natural lighting coming in through the large windows. I would also like to go to the art room when it’s not as busy so around 3/4 so I can take photos of people when they are more focused on their work therefore they won’t be distracted by the camera.

Where

I will most likely take photos of my friends sitting at the table drawing or painting in their sketchbook. Some of the photos will be taken from lower angles and others at eye level to make the photo look even more natural.

Why

The art rooms are usually vibrant and would add a lot of colours to the photograph like some of Anthony Kurtz’ photos which I was inspired by. I also like how the art rooms are usually quite messy and don’t look like other rooms in the school and the untidiness relates to the majority of Anthony Kurtz’s photos as it expresses how hard work can still occur in cluttered environments.

This is some of Anthony Kurtz’s work that inspired me with my photoshoot:

How

With a normal aperture and I may use a tripod to keep the camera steady. I won’t tell the people/models to pose as they’re meant to be in their natural environment and acting in their natural environment also. I’ll take some photos from lower angles to capture more of the persons body and to capture even more angles of the room the in the photos.
