Project prosopal

For my photography final major project, I am going to produce a visual documentation of people, places and objects that have sentimental value to me. They could be, childhood memories, childhood days out, family members, other loved ones or sentimental objects. And also, maybe recreate photos that hold a lot of memories in them.

I am going to photograph these by using a variety of photographic techniques, including shutter speeds, aperture and lighting, I will record these settings in my book. I will also be using experimental techniques to show a variety of different techniques in my progression. Techniques such as HDR, levitation and cyanotypes. I am using these techniques not only to show progression but to also improve my skills.

I will display my research, shoots, and shoot evaluations in my sketch book. And for each shoot, I will pick out my favourite image and write a small essay about how this photo displays a memory. For my final images and their essays I will present them in a separate book.

Research for my project will include appropriate places and why they are relevant, visits to places, photos, relevant photographers and their relevant projects, and maybe a few artists too. I think my final piece will be suitable for a gallery to be viewed by other people who have an interest in documentation.
