Project Plan

At first I wanted to do something like the photo above for my installation piece so then I could get people involved and used different materials and change what the photograph looks like. I would of used different materials to do with the things in the photo. 

The photograph
For my photograph I am going to take my sister out into different areas in my dancing dress. This is going to show the freedom of dance. Thinking about the theme old and new I am using a old camera lens. it is a minolta 50mm prime film camera lens. I am basing it on the freedom of dance because you show emotions through it etc. I am going to take my sister to different place happy places and bad places in this dress and showing literally some of the things people tell us about in dance. The idea hasn't just come from me thinking this is a good idea its going through some experiences myself, family or friends have been through and showing it is easy to hide some things from the real world. Also that a lot of people show it through dance as it isn't obvious whats going on. Im not sure where I'm going to take all the photos yet but I know one of the photos is going to be in a park because its a happy place full of people having fun, another place I'm going to go is down a back ally because it is dark and its usually where people go in dark times for example if someone had turned to drugs it would of been a good place to hide away from everyone. Im not sure about the rest of the shoots but I'm thinking about going through all the emotions. I am going to shoot at 1.7 aperture to get a shallow depth of field on my photos, I am going to used 1/160 of a second because there maybe movement in the background and I wouldn't want it to blur, Im hopefully going to use a ISO of 100 or 200 so it is a sharp image. I'm going to take the photos between 12pm and 6pm depending on what feel I want from each shoot and i don't know what days I'm doing it but before hand I'm going to check the weather forecast. The equipment I'm going to need is my camera, my 50mm minolta lens, maybe a tripod depending on what the shoot it, memory card, my model, my dancing dress. I'm going to wear warm clothes because its quite cold outside at the moment.

The installation 
For the installation its self I'm going to project the pictures of 2 pieces of material. The 2 pieces of material are going to be relevant to the image as in they will be the same material that the dancing dress is made of. Im going to buy these materials from a material shop and buy 2x2m2 for £10 each. The installation is going to be set out in the way that its in front of the door and people walk through the picture. I think this would be good because its the start of the installation pieces and its interest for the public when they first walk in, it will draw there attention. 

I think this is creative because its different to just framing a plain picture on the wall, also I may add a effect on the photo depending on the photograph which would make it even more creative.
