Assignment

This year in photography I have to produce work which involes creating a series of 12 figurative and semi figurative photographs based on a combination of portraits and landscapes. These photographs also have to be in black and white whether its something I do from the camera or take it in colour and change it into black and white in the editing process.


I have one idea i have in mind but i am not sure on the concepts and elements of this  i just like the idea of it whether it would work or not. I had an idea that i would make myself small into a borrower and having 12 photographs as each stage, fighting through obstacles in life.

This is just an example of how i would present myself into these photographs. Another concept i want to get my point across which is very personal to me is that i feel like a failure and feeling small is how i feel 99% of the time so on each stages i would continue facing my fears and the more i face my fears the more i grow in these series of photographs making me appear bigger in each photograph and the very last photograph of the series i would come across as if i was a giant.


I would have to come up with 12 stages of my life but not having the last photograph of where i am now but where i could end up in 50/60 years time. So this helps me be creative and imaginative for the stages i havent even passed yet. This could form and create some realistic and unrealistic views also each photograph will probably contain elements of fear as life is no piece of cake.


The idea originated from me but once i done a bit of research on this, this reminded me of Alice In Wonderland where she appears small and big throughout the film.

The main thing i like about this idea is that it shows Alice In Wonderland is creative and very imaginative which will allow me to have a lot of fun with this assignment.
