Project Description
Type of Work: Fashion
Concept
My concept will be revolving around fantasy and fashion combined. Why Fantasy? Because fantasy in the world is becoming more and unnoticed due to people pushing it away for technology or the fact many don't want to feel foolish in being the one who's always daydreaming and being different. Why Fashion? Because people in society are naturally drawn to beauty. And when most people think of beauty, they think of fashion. It adds on to my love of fashion photography. So I decided to combine the two to demonstrate this disappearance of an important thing people need. I will be using many different kinds of people, mostly those in a smaller and more frail stature to give the sense of innocence to the image, while still demonstrating that Fantasy feeling to it. I will be using other people of different statures to show that anyone can have an imagination.
Vision
When I complete this portfolio, I want people to see what Is becoming of the world now and how today's youth are losing their right to imagine and fantasize. Adults today in the corperate world are trying to shove the fact that life is hard on young children, and then they grow up, also like an empty shell that mirrors what society wants them to be like. I grew up surrounded by storybooks about fairies and dragons and the liking and my minds always a buzz with new ideas. Having an imagination as a child helps with keeping that buzz of ideas as an Teen or even adult. That's what I want people to realize.
Inspiration
All my inspirations are from stories and storybooks and my own wild and crazy imagination. Fantasy is my favorite topic when it comes to reading. It gets my mind on such a rush. I want others to experience the same feeling. I want others to feel the power and warth Fantasy brings to one's heart.
Equipment to be Used
I am not sure Yet of what kind of cameras, but definitely Cameras, possibly strobe and hot lamps.
