The title of this project is “The Cultures of Modern Youth. ” The social issue I want to explore with my photographs is that the boldness of youth culture is a double-edged sword. In basketball culture, this refers to both the negative consequences of being overly aggressive and the positive consequences, such as gaining fame, self-respect, and relieving stress. In this project, I will utilize red and blue light to demonstrate my idea, which involves creating contrast through the interaction of complementary colors. The contrast being created is just like the youth basketball culture. On the blue side, which also represents manageability, there is fame and money in becoming a great. On the red side, which embodies out of control, the aggressiveness and competitiveness of this sport might also lead to impulsive actions, like getting into a physical conflict or anxiety disorder caused by pressure.  I will also capture my subject with a long exposure to create motion blur, evoking the intensity of a basketball game. I want my audience to feel encouraged by the people who have a passion for their community and subculture, while also realizing that boldness is never impulsive.
