Community – summer task – Intro

For these next three photo shoots, i have imagines myself as a photographer for my street, neighbourhood, town or city. And that I have been commissioned to create a sequence of photographs celebrating the spirit of this place and its people. I will be limited to 10 pictures in total. Make a larger body of images, then edit these down to just 10. Arrange in a sequence or collage that makes sense as a final set of images.

Shoot plans

My plans for these three shoots are to approach three different areas and aspects of the community around me. The first shoot will focus on street/candid photography along with the consistent architecture of the community buildings in my parish.

My next shoot will focus in on the area closer to my parish, showing the variation of how people live, their beliefs and the good/bad aspects of this area.

My final shoot will pair with my second shoot focusing on the area closer to my home, but I will take a more abstract and meaningful approach. I will display how the area can seem completely different depending on when you visit, some days it can be busy with children out having fun and other members of the community everywhere, where other days it can seem like a ghost town. These images will be displayed in pairs to show comparrisons.
