Identifying Each Series of Work - Panel 1

This is identifying each series of work, and working out there relevance in my folio.

1. For the first circled group this uses apeture and focus to show the fight of the depression. The shaking of the face shows how the mind can go crazy from depression.

2. The next series of photos are close ups of the face. These pictures show expression of how one can act with a crazy mind. The strong shadows show darkness. The awkwardness of the face represents the mind. 

3. The next 4 photos shows the black blanket as symbolism of the pain and depression, and how its waying him down. 

4. The last photos show clenched fists which represent the punching, and the feeling of blood pumping (veins) and feeling under pressure. 

Latest Shoots, Another Look At Duane Michals

These are my latest photos looking at Duane Michals, these are for my panel one, replacing photos on there that were boring, I LOVE these photos, and are my favourite so far. I found inspiration from Duane Michals ''Fallen Angel Shoot.'' I liked the idea of having something drape over Logan, like this angel is draping over the person. 

Arjan Benning Face and Ear Shots

These shots are the next line of my panel 2, meaning I just need to finish the last of my panel next, maybe with photos with an open space, going back to the Sequencing style of shooting. Also maybe using white clothing to show innocence, and freedom, to show contrast and difference to the other photos.

Latest Shoot + Proof Sheet

I re-took the latest photos, and I prefer these ones a lot. I've used Duane Michals and Kellp Nipper, also with references to David Hilliard and Eadweard Muybridge. These photos use sequences and stick to the high contrast and difference between the darker and lighter pictures.

Artist Model Research - Eileen Cowan

I've beginning to look into other ideas and explore other artist models as I need to develop my folio further. The artist models I've started to look at are Eileen Cowan.

I've started to look at Eileen Cowan, who uses close ups of human features with lots of negative space and very little negative space to show the contrast between light and dark. I've decided that I want to explore my ideas further with this because I think it works well with the mood of my concept.

I've taken some photos so far with lots of negative and dark space. I really like the creepyness of these photos and I think they work really well. In my next shoot I'm going to take similar photos again, but with closeups of the arms and hands, and possibly use Logan's face aswell. The closeups will show more positive space with more light and shadow effects.
