My concentration theme is a cause and effect/then and now composite image photostory comparing the progression of the eras. The cause/effect era progression idea is interesting to me because I've always been fascinated by different time periods that I was unfortunately born too late to partake in. The compare/contrast nature of my concentration allows the modern and retro to interact, bridging the gap between an age I'm familiar with and an era I've only seen depicted through the media.

Week 5
Here are some pictures I edited this week. I'm hoping to complete two more (possibly three) photoshoots by the end of next week. Trying to formulate ideas for later decades...
I think the last image is very strong because of the lighting and the fact that it's really only her silhouette and the bottle for the subject matter. There also seems to be a morose atmosphere to it, but maybe that's just how it looks to me. Maybe you could crop it to her hair on her shoulder so that it cuts out the appliances in the background? Just an idea, but you're doing great work!

ReplyDeleteThese images are really powerful on their own. Maybe you could limit your collages to two images, so you don't lose the impact of the original images.
