I am supposed to keep my blog updated with working procedures in regards to my project, which will be due in the next 2 weeks!
Over the past 5 weeks, I have gone through the process of..
- researching other artists,
- coming up with a creative idea to compliment a contemporary issue,
- developing it into a carefully thought out concept,
- planning a shoot and carrying it out,
- …and right now I am editing the finished product.
After several attempts of trying to shoot at different places (Manuka pool, Rydges hotel pool, Civic pool etc.), my friend informed me of a really great location at the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) public swimming pool. Fortunately, the pool is fitted with mirrors that line the floors for athletes to monitor their strokes in training. So after hearing of this great opportunity, I called the manager of the pool, explained what my project was for/about and organized a suitable time to photograph on Thursday morning. I had to take the morning off school because there was no other time during the week that wouldn’t be busy with athlete training or open to the public.
The shoot went really well and I am extremely pleased with the results, which should be displayed on this blog shortly. After careful deliberation, I managed to select 30 of my favourites from over 200 photographs taken on the day. These photographs will be edited on photoshop in the next week and handed in for marking.
