Twisted Fairytales Plan
Day and Time:
My shoot would have to be taken in the evening as I need my
images to be eerie and sinister. I could also get the atmosphere I am looking
for taking the images at first or last light, when the skies have eccentric and
interesting colours, to almost contrast with the darkness of my models style.
Although I think my time frame would be larger and more flexible if taken at
night.
Style:
The style of my shoot will be twisted fairy tales. Taking
known fairy tale characters and turning them dark, using dark colours and
settings almost seeming gothic. Although in my shots I do not want to focus on
the whole model, I will be focusing on different parts at a time; for example
Legs, hands, face, feet, torso etc. The style of clothing I want my model to
where will be leather, lace… Dark colours such as blacks, purples, reds.
Location:
I want to bring fairy tales into modern day through putting
them on a busy lit road, using the bright lights from cars to contrast with the
dark style I am trying to achieve. It will almost be medieval contrasting with
modern day, with a dark twist.
Time frame:
My time frame will be quite large due to my shoot being in
the evening; therefore I think I could finish a successful shoot within this
time. Although I think makeup would be an issue as I am only using one model
with multiple looks. My shoot may have to take place over the course of two to
three days.
Lighting:
My lighting would be from both street lights and car lights
as my shoot will be taken at night.
Props and equipment:
Regarding props I have quite a lengthy list due to my models
being created from already existing characters. My props mainly include outfits.
With photographic equipment all I need is my camera along with spare batteries
and sd cards.
