Week One - "Where's Kate?"

Currently in college we are working on a series of 5, 1 week briefs, that we have to write ourselves.

Title:

“Where’s Kate?”

Introduction:

You have been commissioned by the producers of the independent film ‘Where’s Kate’ to help create two options for posters to be used in promoting the film. Working closely with art director Joe Bloggs you are required to produce two different mock ups of possible film posters.

Details:

The image needs to give the audience a slight insight into the film and try to portray the characters feelings/emotions.

As the photographer it is your responsibility to gather a selection of images that can then be fitted behind the relevant text on the poster accordingly. Remember that text is likely to be covering certain parts of the images, in particular the top and bottom and so try to avoid having key parts of the image here.

Cowboy

These were taken as part of my brief at college to enter a competition, I chose the London Photographic Associations "Let's Face It 6". In these images I tried to portray the models as fans of whomever they were dressing up as, their serious expressions showing this.

Jedi

These were also taken as part of my initial idea for "Let's Face It 6".

Autobiography

These images were taken for my first brief at college "Autobiography". In this brief we had to depict ourselves in 4 images, and someone else in 4 images.

In the images at the top I tried to explore how much about a person could be learnt from where they are. Initially I wanted to show the person in different places with different parts of the body in show, so rather than just feet, their shoulder, hands etc. In the end however I decided to stick with feet so that there was more of a theme in the images. Though I think it would have worked better if the composition was more similar throughout.

"Morning"

"Day"

"Sunset"

"Dusk"

In these next images, I am showing my 4 autobiographical images. I have chosen to show myself with my family, as I believe that family plays a large role in shaping and socialiasing you into who you are. In the images I have depicted us doing the sorts of activities we would normally do together, and by wearing similar clothes, I aimed to show the influences we have upon each other.

I have used vignetting around the edges to draw the viewers attention into the main focus of the frame. The only image this did not particularly work with is "Dad and I" because I am too low in the frame.
