Strangers

With this work I had developed upon the skills learnt in the previous brief, using a similar technique in photography to capture the images. Due to the principle of strangers I was unable to create a piece that would of incorporated separate medias to an extent. However, carrying on with the theme of expression I wanted to capture a stranger whilst showing the audience a slice of their lifestyle and person. To do this I thought that a store would best suit this as I would have a relatable background on which I could create a viable persona. I had used a niche store in town as I felt this would have an atmospheric feel in not only the composition of what represents the background, but the lighting would also appear warmer than a larger shop.

However, though I did not know at the time, using the manual setting on freehand even with steady shot creating a set of blurry images, which to an extent were unstable and blurred without heavily editing on Photoshop and light room. I will have to take a larger set of images in the future.
