Work Diary 6

This studio photograph has been taken for my project of personal comment. This photograph shows this as it represents how crime is increasing in our country. Also how crime has become very complex and many people in society who commit a crime are very clever at not getting found out. This photograph was edited in black and white to show the negativity and danger of crime. Also to show the stereotype of the black and white stripes which is a stereotypical outfit for prison outfits. These stripes represent the outcome of crime. The sign has been designed and used to make sure the consumers viewing this photograph understand that this photograph's theme is crime as its a stereotypical word that is used for this theme. I directed Demi who I have taken this photograph of to keep a serious and emotionless face this again is showing the representation of crime and how photographs in the real world are taken when people in society go to prison.
This studio photograph has also been taken for my project of personal comment and has been taken to represent the actions of crime. This is through the gun aiming directly at the camera. I have edited this to blur out Demi's body and face so that the main focus is on the gun. This creates this photograph to be harsh and show threat through the gun being aimed forward as if its aiming at who ever is looking at this photograph. The back drop I chose was black this is so that the stereotypical black and white stripes are shown very clear and stand out. The gun has been positioned to almost cover up Demi's face this is to cover her identity and show that anyone is capable of committing a crime.

If I would go back and add to this studio shoot I would of taken more photographs to have more to chose from and would of taken more photographs using the gun as a prop.
