Moodboard of ideas for photo sequence


Idea 1

A day in the life of me in lockdown

10 photos 

waking up, eating, dressed, working, eating, exercise, resting, eating, ready for bed, going to bed

Aims: I could use different angles and shot sizes

I could do a combination black and white and colour images

I like the idea of the first and last photo being similar and the repetition of some activities (eating.)

Idea 2

Passing by

Set the camera by the window and throughout the day I will take photos of people, vehicles going past to capture different moments in the day of what goes past my window

Aims: Camera in same position all day so the shot size is the same but lighting and what is in the frame will change in each photo depending on time of day, weather and what is happening when the photo is taken.

Inspired loosely by:  the Abbey Road photos that mimic the iconic Beatle photo.  I like the idea of different people going past the same location.

Idea 3

Covid-Times

A series of photos that explain life in Covid times. Individually, the photos wouldn't mean much but grouped together they represent our "new normal".

1. Hand gel

2. Washing hands

3. Face mask

4. two metres on a tape measure

5. Teams / Zoom on a phone or laptop


Aims: I will capture the items in isolation, close up,  using plain, non distracting backgrounds so they look like crime scene evidence photos.  I will present them side by side in the same size frames so that when seen in a group they make meaning.

Idea 4

Action shot: A cartwheel 

I'll use the multi burst setting on my phone to take a photo of someone doing a cartwheel to then edit together into one image to show the individual movements that make up the cartwheel.

Aims: Multiburst and stand completely still so shot size doesn't change so I can then edit them all into one photo.

Inspired by:  sequential photography such as Muybridge but I will use photoshop to make my image more like Lars School's action photos:

  Idea 1:  A day in the life of a coin storyboard I plan to make a comic strip style storyboard of photos that tell a story without words.  I want to follow a penny on a journey.  I will take 10 photos for this 1. Penny coming out of a money box (mid shot of money box, hand and penny.) 2. Put the penny in a purse (close up shot of hand putting penny in full purse.) 3. The purse is dropped and money spills onto the floor (close up, shallow depth of field of purse on floor.) 4. The penny rolling away (photo of penny on its side, rolling, shallow depth of field of penny in focus and purse in background to show penny has escaped.)  5. 2 people walking along the street (Low angle photo from point of view of penny) 6. Hand picking up penny. (Big close up shot - macro) 7. 2 people and coin being tossed. (Fast shutter speed of coin spinning in air) 8. One person smiling (Close up of face) 9.
