Topic proposal

For Unit 3 of photography i get to design my own brief. I have decided that the starting point/focus point of my project will be style. When thinking over topic ideas style became a immediate thought of mine as i decided that it opened a lot of different opportunities for me to look at, and gave me the flexibility to elaborate on my own ideas. 

One of the things i thought i could look at within the topic of style was the style of appearance, i felt that this is something that would be a good starting point for me to develop on as well as something i could look at. I have decided i would look at style of clothing, make up and hair while looking at appearance. i feel like this idea could show a touch of personality and beauty which are two different topics that i was considering.

These to images up are and example of how i could look at style through the idea of beauty and the use of make up. I think that this idea would be best achieved through simple techniques and possible a video to show someone doing their make up. I could also create a animation and so each step someone takes doing their make up. Another possibility would be to create a sequence comparing different beauty looks.

In the two images above the idea of style is being shown through the  clothes that people wear. I think that this is a good way to show a persons individual style as well as include their personality. I think that including personality here would be a investing and fun thing to look at as i would be able to make every single shoot i do different for each person.

I also have other ideas to look at like cars and technology and look at the way that these have progressed over time to reach the style and model that they have today. I think that this topic will be really enjoyable for me and i think that i will be able to show a development in my photography skills.
