Evaluation
Overall I really enjoyed these three projects, minus the pinhole one. I learnt to use a range of different media which had always interested me such as large format. And I also dabbled more with masks on photoshop, which has made me a bit more confident now. I would have shot my pinhole images again given the chance, but now I don’t want to even hear the word pinhole for a good few months.
Finals: Perfect Worlds
So I scrapped my original idea of doing something with a panoramic image as I have done similar stuff before and I wanted to try something new. Multiple exposure shots always used to fascinate and puzzle me when I was a little kid, until I knew how they were done I thought there were like 6 identical people used in the shoot.

I no longer have to re-build a camera, re-shoot the photos and get super stressed out about everything when trying to print them. I am going to put them into a small book instead of just handing them in, so wish me luck.
Finals: SOS
I finally managed to shoot the photos for my SOS project and get them scanned in and sorted out.

So yeah here they are. I am really pleased with how they turned out, I think it is a nice...
Project: SOS
So all my ideas went to scrap this week. There was no way I could gain access to the leisure centre again and security was so on the ball it was unreal. So I gave up on that idea and tried to think of a new one. A friend of mine does and engine workshop class in Bexleyheath and I have seen the workshop belonging to the guy who runs it. And it looks so crazy, packed wall to wall with random engine...
