Week Four - Litter Campaign

Title:

“Litter Campaign”

Introduction:

You have been asked to create an image to be used as a front for a campaign against the ever increasing amount of litter in the UK.

Details:

One image is required for submission.

The image needs to clearly show there is excess litter in a new way so that the message about not dropping litter can be reinforced to the public.

This image is the 3rd idea for the brief as each previous idea became more unachieveable within a week. Origianlly i wanted 'Raining Litter' to be shot outdoors and for it to be literally raining litter on my model. This failed due to the high winds and heavy rain throughout the week. My next idea was created through Chris Jordans latest project (www.chrisjordan.com) and my aim was to gut a pidgeon and fill it with litter. Unfortunately we did not find a dead pidgeon (or other bird) in time and so the idea has to be put behind. We later found and disected a pidgeon, the results of which can be found here: http://petebenjamin.blogspot.com/2009/12/insides.html

Instead this idea is suppose to represent humans as animals and how we wouldnt eat litter so why make them. However again as the weather wasnt compatible, it had to be shot in the studio, which has made the environment too clean
