Hoping to spark a more refined idea, I proceeded to plan my first shoot. I felt most comfortable starting my shoot experiments with a youth, fashion influenced, editorial basis (as initially discussed in my proposal). However, I plan to keep my open mind whilst shooting, exploring as many ideas as I can to then review in my next mentor meeting. Hopefully, some aspects of the shoot can then be drawn out and focussed on more clearly, allowing a specific and in-depth concept to grow, ideally somewhat combining my interests explored thoroughly in my proposal of class representation, youth and style.
Digital photographer Jack Valpy and chosen model Ellie Hoare will be joining me on Thursday to shoot in a number of locations. These include more typical gritty, urban settings such as a local carpark with a top floor overlooking the city's landscape, as well as a cleaner, seemingly more upscale looking roads. I felt these contrasting locations may highlight areas of both the working-class associated urban trend with a purposeful contradiction.
Ellie's styling shall be chosen tomorrow from her actual wardrobe, providing a sense of authenticity. Her hair and make-up will also be completed herself as she normally would. I currently aim to create the more comfortable atmosphere, promting some natural, candid shots.
