In order to come up with my manifesto and my final projects, I had to go through specific steps. These steps were to ensure that my brainstorming was thorough so that I could end up with a satisfactory final product. At first, I wrote down a list of topics that i am extremely passionate about. After reading through the list, I narrowed it down to 3 topics. I then ranked the 3 topics in order of importance. Finally i had the topic that I was most passionate about, this topic being self acceptance and embracing ones flaws.
My next step was to actually write out the manifesto. At first, i thought that this would be easy but boy oh boy, was I wrong! I had to come up with a suitable title (which took ages) and then i had to come up with the manifesto itself! After writing, editing, rewriting, editing, gaining useful pointers from my lecturer and writing again, I finally ended up with "The flawed Manifesto", which is pretty well written, if I do say so myself.
Once my manifesto was finalised , i had to brainstorm ways of depicting my message visually , through my blog and photographs. I first went on the Internet and searched for photographers and pictures that might inspire the look and feel of my blog. Once I found the desired images, I then took to create two look and feel boards for blog. Out of the two, I finally selected the theme that i thought best suited my manifesto. A very bold, plain and simple theme that is predominantly black and white.
When i selected the them I had to finally start thinking about my photo shoots. Once again I went back to pen and paper and started scamping and brainstorming in order to come up with an effective concept.
After all of the brainstorming, i finally came up with 3 projects. I though that i was ready to shoot but then something just clicked, I realised that I wasn't completely happy with my ideas , as a result I went back to brainstorming! eventually I came up with 3 projects that I was happy with. At this point i started scamping and sketching ideas for poses that the models would do in each shoot.
Project 1- Scamps and sketch (Refinement of idea)
Project 2- Scamps and sketch (Refinement of idea)
Project 3- Scamps and sketch (Refinement of idea)
The final step before conducting my photo shoot was planning the actual shoots. This plan included all of the essentials needed to do the photo shoot , such As lighting
