Work Diary - Sequencing

For today's session, we focused on sequencing. In order to do this, we went out to the local park as this gave us more options for our photographs. One main issue, which I faced whilst doing this shoot was originality; I found it hard to come up with new ways of showing the theme of sequences. I think this is because I didn't plan my shoot properly. I had to think of interesting sequences to show in my pictures and by putting my pictures next to each other showing several sequences was a good way to do this - mostly because, by lining the pictures up, a sequence is shown in the structure as well as in the actual photographs.


I also showed sequencing through an image where I had my subject doing different actions throughout the picture. This is a great way of showing a sequence in one picture rather than lining pictures up together. However, I think the picture below doesn't have enough of my subject in it, I think I should have added a couple more clones of him in order to make the picture more exciting as I think it looks quite empty.


 If I had the chance to do this shoot again, I would do more research and take my time to thoroughly plan what I am trying to achieve as most of my pictures are similar to those I found on the internet and do not consist of variety as much as I would like them to. Also, I think a studio shoot will give me more control over how I manipulate my pictures.
