Week 7: Project Development

This week I had a peer-to-peer webinar with Andy, De and Sioned. I had yet to shoot any new images this week when we met, however thankfully they had not seen my work until now, so I still received valuable feedback. Much like other people who have seen my WIPP so far the favourite image of the series is the one with the head in the dishwasher, as it is sinister and ‘gallows humour’. My use in colour palette and lighting choices especially in the laundry image was also well commended, as well as the overall concept.

It was mentioned that my images might work well in a book format where the tweet was on one side of the page and the image on the other so the text was ‘bigger’, however the issue of small text, is possibly more down to the fact that I had just quickly put my images into a word document as preparation for the webinar.

In terms of research it was mentioned I might find it useful to look at domestic abuse/women’s aid charities advertising, and that I might find a Metro article from April about a wedding photographer who shot a lockdown wedding with dolls (Figure 5).
