Shoot 6 Tense Work Record

Plans

In this shoot I hope to take some photographs that represent Tense. in order to do this I will use models verbally and physically fighting. I think a good way to represent it would be to have slight shadowing and movement in the photographs. I also intend on editing them into black and white to emphasise the tenseness.

What I hope to achieve: 

I hope to achieve a selection of photos with different lighting and movement present. I hope to get a real life representation of arguing, As I am using my friend It may be difficult as for a staged argument, it becomes hard not to laugh. 

What I actually achieved

I managed to achieve a section of photographs exploring the topic of Tense. Within the photographs I tried to vary the type of arguing, levels of aggression ad staging. I have a few in different places. I managed to edit the in black and white, and achieve the movement pictures. 

I like this photograph because of the way you can see pure emotions of their fees. Truth to be told, the girls were singing along to songs aggressively rather than shouting and making the actual atmosphere a horrid one. I used flash on this photograph so that you can see slight shadowing on the walls and around their silhouettes. The reason I did this was because it adds to the aura of not really wanting to watch what something will evolve to.

This photograph, I tried to capture slight movement which worked for me. I did not have a tripod present, so I let the camera rest on an arm rest whilst i put the shutter speed up to about 2 seconds. This photo is blurry and very chaotic, adding to the tenseness. It is one girl going to punch the other girl, who is cowered in the corner. I like the way this can represent many different things. To me I see my friends messing around,however, another person, who does not know the secrets of the photograph could see two girls fighting, inflicting pain over each other.

What I will do next time/Progression

If I were to redo this shoot, I would like to experiment with different locations and models. I would also have the lighting a lot dimmer and hopefully have the right equipment I needed.

For my next shoot, I would like to use close up shots and capture emotions either they are physically seen or manipulated in.
