Begin the lesson by reading through the Component One guide. Make a note of your homework - to watch the video on A* Photography Workflow Tips. Carry out research into the different theme options for your personal investigation. I wouldn't normally give you such a big choice, but with so few of you in the group, I'd like you to have the opportunity to pick something that really interests you, and will capture you for the full length of the project. Things to consider when choosing: Choose the topic that interests you the most. It should spark lots of ideas and must be something that you will be able to photograph independently outside of school. With this in mind, you might choose to do something fairly straight forward that you have access to. Another thing to do is to choose something that is personal to you, as it will be easily accessible and something you know a lot about. When you have chosen your topic, complete the following: Create a mind map of ideas - break down your question as much as you can, with all kinds of ideas, even ideas you have no interest in as it shows you have considered a wide range of concepts. Find 3 photographers to inspire your initial photo shoots - choose 3 that are quite different - different styles, techniques, approaches to the subject etc. - create a research page on each artist, including photos that inspire you most and a paragraph about their work. Discuss their techniques, style, content etc using the formal elements to help structure your comments. Ensure that you include your opinion and how the photographer will inspire you. Make sure that you have completed the above by next week, ready to start your responses to your artists.
The second part of your homework is to start taking photos ready to edit next week for your artist responses. This might be one photoshoot or 3 separate depending on your artist choices.
