Chosen Photos Analysis.
In response to
the theme of 'Society' I decided to create a response that would be focused on
the different environments and societies that I was born in and grew up in
throughout my life in order to show how we are constantly changing and damaging
the society and world that we live in. By using a documentary style combined
with landscape photography of urban and rural environments I felt that this
would be the most effective way of producing photographs based around my chosen
themes that would portray an impactful perspective on the human impact we all
cause and can change through how we treat our society such as litter, graffiti,
street art, demolishment of buildings and construction. In order to
influence this perspective further I decided to take my photographs for this
series using a lower camera angles (taking shots from the ground) and using
leading lines to draw my target audience’s attention and focus to specific
areas within my imagery.
In order to
emphasize my chosen themes, focal points and subject matters I have decided
that I will experiment with creating black and white imagery with selective
colouring and hints of original colours from the landscapes that have been
documented in order to draw attention to specific areas of focus within my
photographic series. Considering that I will also be combining this editing
techniques with monochromatic tones I have also decided to experiment with
using said black and white tones to emphasize the grit and grime that is often
found within city societies and environments.
By creating and documenting these styles of photographs I intend on raising awareness of the human impact and the
changes – both negative and positive – that we all can have on our society,
whether that’s through littering, graffiti, street art, demolishment of
buildings and construction. By doing this I hope to challenge people’s perspectives
on our negative and positive impact on the societies and environments that we
live in and how we could potentially work to make changes on how we treat our
society and what makes it into the societal environment that we know and live
in and how it could potentially be improved upon one day to make it better for
future generations of the human race.
