First time using light sabers to try and creating light trails 🌠

Experimenting with long exposure photography is something I'm hoping to add further to my portfolio as we progress through the warmer nights.

The settings used were a mixture of:

shutter speed: 30"
aperture: 25.0
iso: 6400

&

shutter speed: 6"
aperture: 14.0
iso: 6400

Experimenting with Mirrors

I have not done much photography that includes mirrors as finding the right angle etc I expected to be difficult.

For my last collage brief I pushed myself out my comfort zone to experiment with this type of photography.

For the smaller mirror I wanted to focus on my model being reflected. Once I found the right angle to shoot from I then experimented with B&W again to see how it effected the shadows and reflections.
For the larger mirror I wanted to try different poses with an aspect of bareness/ naked flesh. Once I had captured these I played around with the settings to have the colours more dulled in the background only leaving the mirror frame in colour to empathise the reflection.

The Emperors New Skin

For my first brief of my degree I was tasked with creating a modern take on the story "The Emperors New Cloths".

My aim was to capture the story in a modern-day form. I had chosen to do this by having the emperor of social status rather than royalty. My idea was to show an influencer, like the emperor who only care's about having the best products (Makeup or clothing) and being able to show them off. Like the emperor changing his cloths, the influencer would change there looks/masks to hide their bare face and look "beautiful" in a way modern day had twisted the idea of beauty.

I wrote my own interpolation to the story that I will leave below and created photography and illustrations to go with this.

As a final conclusion to my story i created latex faces merging out a mirror to represent the emperors’ cloaks and how we cover our faces in makeup to look grand and beautiful, and how we can change this constantly like putting on a new mask. Th reflections were to represent vanity. Not being able to see clearly your reflection also represents how we manipulate our looks to fit in with the modern crowd.

The masks represent the emperors’ cloaks and how we cover our faces in makeup to look grand and beautiful, and how we can change this constantly like putting on a new mask.
