I can honestly say after seeing the examples in the lecture I was really looking forward to starting this project. The concept seemed so fun. But thinking of an idea was not as easy as I initially anticipated. And I was left at 7am on the morning of the shoot still trying to find something to use. I ended up placing a small figurine in front of a chunk of rock and using gels and the position of the camera etc. I tried to make it look like he was standing looking out to sea (using the rock as a cliff-face). It worked out better than I thought but I still didn’t like my idea as a whole. I have had a few ideas since, which I may experiment a bit more with soon. The initial idea behind the project was to take an object and photograph it in such a way that you transform it in a sense.
