Portfolio Board Panel 2 - #1

How many series of works are you planning?

- Right now I plan to do 4 ( all blue boxes and pink boxes) series of works. On the blue boxes, I plan to do photography of a person through the trees, shadows, buildings, and or mirror reflection. While on the pink boxes I plan to do an over the shoulder shot of a person. 

What can you tell me about how they extend upon your kaupapa?

- My kaupapa is 'isolation/being alone'. These extend upon isolation/being alone as these photographs will symbolise this person as "looking" over what they desire their life to be while feeling like they can't obtain it.

How?

- Taking photographs of a person through the trees, shadows, buildings etc. will show how the person is looking at their ideal world but they feel disconnected from it. While an over the shoulder shot of a person will show how the person desires the life they see in front of them but them being too hopeless to obtain it, therefore they are only able to watch others live the life they desire. 

What are your next steps?

- My next steps would be to go to the city and take pictures of a person as I stated above. I would also need to think about what kind of photos I should put in the other boxes or if I should stick to my original idea of how the last few boxes will indicate the person slowly finding hope to obtain their desire.

Portoflio Board Panel 1 - #1

This is what board 1 currently looks like. I originally planned to make the colours go from cool tones to warm tones, however as can be seen on my board, I wanted it to go from being black & white to slowly gaining colour. On the left side of the board, I wanted it to flow from a zoomed out pov of an object to a zoomed in, to sort of symbolise the emptiness of the location. When finished, board 1 would mostly be filled with photos of abandoned places to start off the idea of "isolation/isolated'. Then the very last picture would be 2 phones next to each other with one phone showing a person "reaching out" to nobody on one phone, while the other phone is turned off to transition into the next board where people in the photos will slowly come in.
