Who

Younger models, preferably females. They will most likely be some of my friends from my school.

What

I will focus on the face of the models, as well as hands put near their face. I will experiment with emotions, taking photos of the models with a range of different expressions which are similar to the models in Maurizio Anzeri’s photographs, such as; happy, serious/neutral, obscure/silly and other emotions.

Where

I will take the photos in the studio at my school using two point lighting with LED lights. I will ask the models to stand in between the two lights to ensure that the lighting is symmetrical on both sides of the model which creates less shadows.

When

I will take the photographs during a photography lesson or in one of my free periods at school, i will photographs as long as possible to ensure I have a good amount of quality photographs, although this depends on when the studio is free and when my models are free.

Why

I am deciding to have the lighting and models positioned this way in order to get similar images to the photographer Maurizio Anzeri’s work. Although I will not be able to get the exact photo I want without editing the image on photoshop as this photographers photographs look old and vintage rather than modern photos taken on a modern camera. I have chosen this photographer so I can express what I think identity is through loss of identity and identity shown through emotion and personality.

Here are some of the images that inspired me:

How

I will set up the studio with the camera on a tripod to prevent camera shakes, so the images are in focus, as well as this I will set up a two point lighting system with a neutral coloured LED panel in order to allow the faces and hands of the models to be exposed and seen properly.  I will set the shutter speed to a lower setting to make the photo come out sharper and in focus and the aperture should be around f/4.
