I cannot believe that I have not blogged since last April! This is not good. But I have been extremely busy and I guess life has just taken over. Time for an Update:
April, May and June: In these few months my whole life revolved around my final major project. I worked extremely hard on that project and was really pleased with the results. The project was named 'The People of Plymouth' and consisted of a series of portraits. I documented people that lived on my route from my home to my workplace which at the time was the Townhouse pub which then closed down to be turned into student accommodation. These portraits were accompanied by an 'object' that represented the individual or something that meant a lot to them. There were also landscape shots that showed my journey from my home to my workplace. I enjoyed this project and met many interesting people along the way. The images are below:
July, August, September: These months were limited photographic months. I used them instead to work for the summer. I worked in my normal WHSmiths job and then took on another job working at Ede and Ravenscroft as a call center worker. I had a brilliant time in both these positions and was able to get myself some money to start the final year of my degree with.
October: October was a challenging one, I found it difficult to get back on top of my college work whilst having many other personal commitments. However it was an interesting month were I got to try out some new things including learning how to do a few things in Photoshop. This was a good experience and has led on to more recent work.
November and December: So these two months have been two very crucial ones. Firstly I was able to try out making some beauty imagery. This was a great experience and for the first time I was able to use a beauty dish and I am amazed it gives such a beautiful light and I am really happy with the imagery.
So now that you have all been updated i look forward to telling you all about my new upcoming project very soon...watch this space :)
