Project 1 Continued
As I read your comment on my proposal more ideas came into my head. When you mentioned messing with the speed of the film, I imagined that could be used in a very unique way while trying to manipulate the film to get different reactions from the viewer. I coukd take pictures of different activities with one person and see how they come out. Maybe have a really blurred one by opening the shutter for a long time. Or on the opposite hand, I could take fast motion shots with a quick shutter speed to capture my subject in the middle of the action. I feel this could create tension in the frame with the open shutter. I also like how you commented on using one person for my subject so I can mess with the zoom and focus on the subjects features as you zoom more and more in. I still like my idea on how the whole space of a picture can add to it and by showng that through different shots, whether it be zoomed in or a long shot. With a close up on a person, the viewer is primarily focused on the person. But if I would zoom out and bring in a background that has something to say, the viewer will not just be focusing on the person. For example, a picture of a beautiful girl close up. You as the viewer would probably concentrate on what makes her gorgeous; her features. Then if I pulled the camera back and revealed something that the viewer wouldn't expect, they wouldn't concentrate on the girl anymore causing controversy. I feel I just need to explore with shooting and see what I come up with for my first roll.

Bryan,
I'm glad I've sparked some inspiration. Your thought patterns are definitely progressing and narrowing in the direction you want to go. I think if you start experimenting, your ideas will flourish and solidify. Try out all possibilities.
