Hello, it has been a while. So I'm well and truly stuck into my projects now. Having completed the percussive rhythm and the filming for the time lapse I turned my attention to the photography side of the assignment.
At first I had decided to work on the fashion aspect for the magazine shots. I went out and picked up a couple of fashion magazines to get some inspiration. It seems that high contrasty, shots with lens flare, and late summer/early autumn colours are in fashion. So Chris and I set out to a nearby Beech forest to take some earth colour shots. Although I'm happy with the shots they just weren't working for me.
A while before, Dave had kindly offered to help me with the jewellery section of the brief, and my brother had kindly lent me a few of his watches and I was happy with the outcome.
In the end, I just wasn't happy with the direction the shots were going. The photos didn't really give off the right image, and despite photographing my 'dressed to thrill' (I had a friend dress up in some tasteful PVC and latex) I felt they were a little too risqué and again not the ideal image I wanted to portray.

Even so, I don't want my work to go to waste, so I decided to blog about them, and show a couple of the pictures I took.
So, I've changed my mind, from fashion to food. I have a few solid ideas so far, and I look forward to implementing them.
