Below is a brief plan outlining some topics and artists I would like to explore during my project (this has obviously changed and developed throughout).
​
'DIARY' PROJECT PLAN
​
ARTIST RESEARCH:
-
Andy Biggar and Emily Hancock (for guidance on animal photography).
​
EXPERIMENTATION: Action Shots
-
Continuation of Andy Biggar's work (a selection of action shots rather than dogs in general).
-
What features of my photography/camera helped me to improve my action shots?
-
What helped me approach a subject I have very little knowledge/experience of?
​
RECORDING: Capturing the Mood
-
Night lights (good content for mood adjustment - darkness can look scray/mysterious, light can look happy/thriving).
-
Photographs from a trip can create nostalgia which captures a mood fantastically.
-
Turning photographs into a memory box?
​
FINALISING AN OUTCOME: Documentation
-
What final outcome can you create from such a varied project?
-
How can you create an unexpected/unusual outcome?
-
Chance to attempt videography? What skills will I need to practice?
