In today’s tutorial I spoke to my tutor about my ideas, with
the goal of deciding who I will be photographing. I went into the tutorial with
John Wayne as my hero which I was almost a 100% sure about, and then Doctor
Evil out of Austin Powers which I only really chose on the day so I had more to
talk about.
Coming out of the tutorial I was really happy to know that
he liked the idea of John Wayne, and the specific photo of his I’d chosen. As
for the villain, he showed me David Bailey’s photo of the Kray twins. I wasn’t
sure about it to start with as I didn’t know a great deal about them, but he
explained to me that the use of lighting in the Wayne photo is very similar as
well as the way the photos are framed which would make them work well as a pair.
This meant in my opinion that my own self portrait would have to be done in a
similar way but I didn’t mind because I hadn’t made any plans for it as yet.
Now I feel as if I have two solid images that I happy to do,
I will go ahead with sourcing the right clothing for the images.
