Project Plan

My intentions for this project is to create an outcome is to create a set of six images that would be displayed on the homepage of a shopping website, with the genre of my choice. Within these six images I will create a minimum of two still life images and two portrait images. Within these images I will take careful consideration of which studio equipment and how I will set up my shoot. Throughout this project I will create contact sheets of my experimental images and document everything on my blog, showing my images and annotating, explaining what I did, how and why I did it, if I like it and why, what went well and what can be improved, and will then improve and develop in my next shoot. I will also have a body of research to help develop my ideas, which will show research into Advertisement, social, editorial and technical and scientific photography. 
I will start off this project by completing research and getting my ideas together, which I will aim to do within the first couple of weeks. Once this is complete I will then move onto getting my ideas together, finding a model etc, and starting off my first shoot once all of that is sorted. After each shoot I will spend time creating a contact sheet of my shoot images and documenting them onto my blog and annotating. I hope to be doing this within the 4th to the last week, showing development and improvement throughout. To shoot my ideas in the studio I will need to think about what lighting I will need once I have thought more into my ideas, whether I want it high key or low key, with shadow or no shadow and so on. I will also need a backdrop, my camera, objects that I will use for my still life images, and a model and I will make sure all of these things are sorted and in place before starting my shoots.
