Unit 57/Photography Proposal

Photography Proposal

Working title: Autumnal, Documentry and Architechtual photography.

The goal of writing this proposal is to present the reasons for doing this project as well as stating all of the project's objectives. The project I shall be discussing is photography, I will be writing the purpose of this unit and the subjects I have decided to photograph, as well as the projects deadline, target audience, concept and locations.

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to help improve camera technique, and learn more about camera movement, and the equipment I shall be using. The project I shall be discussing is photography; I will be using a canon camera device EOS 1000D to take my images, and will be using any extra equipment if needed (e.g. Lighting, reflectors etc.) The project will be on going for around six weeks, and everything that needs to be completed will be finished by the deadline. There are no costs in this project as all equipment including the software is already provided.

Deadline: The deadline for all my photography work is due in on the 14th November 2014. By this time all paperwork will be completed and all my intended photographs will be taken either before or on this date.

Audience: The intended target audience for this unit is wide ranging, from anyone who is interested in nature and wildlife to documentary photography. It can catogrise into any age group as none of images are explcit.

Concept: I have chosen to take themed photographs, themes that are taken throughout my photographs are autumnal, festive, documentary, wildlife and nature. I am taking these images as the autumnal season is ahead and the range of different colours I can capture will be photographed best at this particular time. Some planned photographs I plan to take are, the colour changing plants and flowers, tourist attractions eg. the big wheel in the centre of Manchester, and also to capture the green foliage before it changes in Hyde Park.

Location: For the documentary photographs I will be taking my photos in Manchester, I will be capturing some images in the evening so I can get a good picture of the lights in Manchester and also in the daylight. When taking my autumnal photographs, I will be capturing these in parks, and locations in Manchester.

With every project or unit there are legal and ethical considerations to follow, therefore to avoid copy write I will be taking my own photographs, and editing them in a unique way in order for it to look like no one else’s. Every photograph will be original with some inspiration from other photographers however no picture will be the exactly the same.
