'Keeping Faith'

As part of this project we were required to get into groups of about 5-6 individuals; for this task I was working with Rose, Megan, Emma, Astrid and Sevrine. We were required to devise a narrative, whereby we would then go on to create a miniature set; which once made we would light up and photograph it.

Some of the initial ideas that we had were:
  • Church setting
  • Colour windows (glass stained windows) --> lighting could be coming through the window
  • Someone praying
  • Potential ballerina/angel
Roles within the group:
  • Me- Design/supplier of materials/Note taker
  • Rose- Design/supplier of materials
  • Megan- Design/Installation
  • Emma- Design/Creative planner/post production
  • Astrid- Project manager/creative planner/post production
  • Sevrine- Design
Once we had thought of an idea we were then able to work as part of a team really well in order to complete the task. We all contributed something and no one was left out. We made use a range of materials and shared ideas throughout carrying out this mini project.

When executing the photography part of this task we used a single Tungsten light (along with stand); this would help to bring light through our coloured windows which were used as part of the structure. We used two cameras during the photography part of this task (Emma's camera- Cannon- with a 50mm lense), (Astrid's camera- Nikon), this was done to test the quality of images that both individuals could get, so that we had the best chance of receiving a good end result.
As well as using the the Tungsten light, we also tried out using the flash light from a mobile phone, both with the Tungsten light and without, however, for our end result we decided to use the Tungsten light and Emma's camera.
In charge of image editing was Emma and Astrid, this helped to improve the overall quality of the image.

If we were to carry out this task again, and with more time would be to make a bigger and better structure, so that we could create a better narrative and with that we would be able  to make more professional photographs. But i feel in the time that we had (2hr 30mins) we did very well.
