Identity and Place

Conclusion

My images were based on the metal genre and how society views it. I feel as though I was able to explain the downsides to listening to an unpopular genre of music; but also how much it has helped me throughout my life. I believe that my images show that people need to stop judging others for being who they are.

I think I have used good techniques while taking my images, for example using a long exposure and a slow shutter speed to create blurred and streaked effects in my photos. I also believe that I was able to use photoshop well like using the whirlpool setting and layering multiple images on top of each other to make a statement.

I believe that I could use different ways to make facial features unrecognisable for example creating geometric images and using a blur tool.

One thought on “Identity and Place”

  1. Eleanor: a wide range of approaches in this unit, with some areas of clear success.
    I think the most successful images are the studio shots / blurred heads…and you should like at Francesca Woodman as another reference to explore and link.
    Now, you have a chance to develop more ideas and complete the remaining units within the portrait project by Feb half term…well done!
