The 'Book'
I have finally got all my images back from the printers, it took a while scanning the negatives and then the magazine pages that were used as inspiration but I think they turned out quite well! I chose to do the book 12x12 and for the front and back cover I am going to use an old corset to follow through with the fashion theme. Im going to make the front and back cover using a corset to follow the 'fashion' theme.
Fingers crossed that I pass the assignment!

Fashion Shoot!
So, I started this blog as a way to inform you all as to what i'm up to and to share my work so far.
My third assignment for my FD was titled "I consume therefore I am..." - I decided to use how magazine's influence fashion and what we buy from the High Street as my inspiration.
I think that the advertising of products then using celebrities to promote them further influences many people who read the magazines to often copy 'looks' from them.
For my shoot I decided to keep it simple with a plain background like Irvin Penn, my inspiration in addition to magazine fashion pages comes from Cindy Sherman's over the top 'glamour' images - to do this I decided the girls should where a lot of make up and clashing outfits, all of which were put together using contemporary magazines with clothes available on the High Street.
For this assignment, we were told to use film as opposed to digital, which I am not used to at the moment and this was also the first time I have attempted a Fashion shoot of this kind, here are some simple point-and-shoot snapshots!
My Friend Emma helped style the girls and give them pointers and help with hair and make up.
It was fairly successful, I shot in colour film using a 35mm camera and then backed up with digital.
The final images will be photoshopped (placed on new pages and the dust removed) then put into a book along with montages of the magazines used for inspiration.
When I have finished the book I'll upload a few pages!
