Exam Proposal

Name:Chloe Macklin                                                          issued 12/04/2016

AS Photography students

Aim: Prepare shoot proposal for the set exam

·      Identify materials equipment processes required for the set exam

·      Demonstrate an ability to plan for the exam paper

  

Set exam dates: 19^th, 21^st, 26^th, 28^th April

My exam proposal is: -

Shoot 1  - To shoot on location. I will attempt to capture images similar to those of shoot 8 using long exposure and will try to create a ghostly and unnerving atmosphere to my images which will therefore link to the work of Alexey Titarenko.

Shoot 2 – To again, shoot on location but this time, photograph clocks, similar to that of shoot 2. I will hopefully be able to shoot some older looking clocks that will link well to the topic of the passing of time.

I hope to link my two shoots together when creating my final outcomes. At the present moment, my plan is to try and experiment with overlaying an image of a clock onto a long exposure shot and then decreasing the opacity to give the image a very faint clock outline in the background. I hope to experiment with this idea, or something similar during the exam time.

I will be working in the following locations (maximum no = 2)

I will shoot on location for the duration of the shooting period for the exam. I will shoot in wooded areas around the Sawbridgeworth area and for shoot 2, I will take photos of the clocks which are around my house.

Planning.

In order to carry out my shoots, I will require –

My camera and a tripod.

I am planning my shoots on the following dates/times -

I am planning for my shoots to both take place on the morning of the 19^th April 2016. I hope to shoot between 9.15am and 12.15pm.

                       

If working on location be aware that the first shoot must be for a three hour location excluding travel time.
