past week

This week I have been working on my portfolio and getting my images to gather and printing and putting them into my portfolio, I have also possessed my film for fiji and started idea development for that, but mostly I have been working on my portfolio.

more artists

Since the last post of artist and research that I had done, I have researched one more artist to put into my power point and he is Wolfgang Tillmans I researched him because of his use of colour and dropping into water to create spirals a swirls of colour in the water, so that's something I'm interested in try to recreate with my images.
We have also looked at to documentary photographers witch are Steve McCurry who dose a lot of photographing in India photographing the people and the culture, his work has been used by the national geographic and other high end magazines, and then we looked at Chris Rainier's who photographed tribal people and used some interesting techniques to create move ment in his images witch created strikes of light and colour, he has also done normal images and worked in balck and wight, his work has also been shown in national geographic and in magazines like Time.

Resent work Fujifilm

For this project I started of by researching two other winners of the fujifilm competitions they are Clelia Maumene and Amanda Richardson I picked these two because I particularly liked there work there use of contrast and lighting and colour and also the use of photograms, I also researched Robert mapplethorpe because I was considering wether I could do portraits for this project and I like his work because of the composition and contrast on in his images.
I researched Richard Mosse witch gave me my frist idea. I researched him because of looking in a book called INFRA, witch is a seriers of war image taken on a infrared film witch picks up serrate light and terns some things pink, I researched this because of how the technic add a contrast between the nice pink of the tress and the desalit ground that's been blowen up by war, this is why I picked his work because I like how it looks with the pink I like how that makes the images look and how it's not just about photographing the really bad horrible part of war but he's giving some kind of contrast witch makes the image have more impact. this work gave me my first idea because I was thinking about how games could be seen as a escape from general life and how if I could show a representation of real life against a game it could work, and then finally my second idea came from a TV show called Heros were serrate people have powers, and I remembered one who had a power that was kind of like colour synesthesia where playing an instrument makes the colours have impacts on the real world, I plan on going with my second idea because it's more interesting to me than my first, to do it I plan of using waters and some sort of ink of paint to create a similar kind of effect.
