Mind Map

  • Theme = Journey –> Considering taking scenes rather than human figure (focused).
  • Since the last project I took specific figure shooting, this time I’m thinking to combine scene + figure. In this case, the surrounding will be more important than the figure.
  • Photographing bedrooms or bathrooms (atmosphere created upon this) –> black & white.
  • Capture the essence of your journey through the landscapes and cityscapes you encounter. This could include winding roads, city skylines, or natural landscapes that symbolize the path you travel.
  • Play with light and shadow to highlight the passage of time and the changes in environment as you move from one place to another.
  • Consider creating a series of images that tell a story or depict different stages of your journey. This can help to give a comprehensive view of the journey experience.
  • Repetition of scene. Same scene but with different photograph techniques.
  • Include signs, symbols, or landmarks that indicate direction, distance, or cultural significance to the journey.
  • Experiment with different perspectives and angles to give a sense of depth and dimension to the journey. A low angle can make the viewer feel the journey is unfolding before them.
  • Capturing the quiet moments of still life and nature that come across on the journey.

Statement of intent

For my photography project, I aim to capture the essence of personal journeys within the confines of bedrooms and bathrooms, using black and white imagery to emphasize texture and atmosphere over color. The photograph will explore the narrative of movement through repeated scenes, varied perspectives, and including significant signs and symbols.
