These are are the stills I took after I conducted the interview with the subject. I wanted to get some portraits of the subject to show the audience the profile of the subject. After conducting the interview on the subjects sofa, I got some stills to act as a cover shot for the video. I wanted to get a cover shot for the video because it’s the image that invites the audience to view the video. The other portraits I captured, I think would work well in a magazine article. They show a clear profile of the subject and give the audience a clear idea of who the subject is in the story they’re reading is about. I wanted to show the subject as a person, somebody the audience could relate to. In response to this I chose to conduct the interview in the subjects living room to add a mundaneness, a common ground between the subject and the reader.

At first I was just going to capture some portraits of the subject, some head shots to break up the audio. However after considering the message I wanted to portray in the piece of work I was making, I decide the photographs I captured were not going to give enough context on their own. I was happy with the portraits I captured of the subject, however I felt that they could be elevated,  being included along-side other photographs that gave more context about the subject that was being spoken about.

After reviewing the photographs I have captured, I have decided to arrange another session with the subject. I plan to change the location of the shoot to show the subject doing what he loves. By getting some footage of the subject at his place of work, will give the audience more of a visual representation and more of an attachment to the story he is telling. I plan to capture both photos and video of the subject, creating a more visually stimulating outcome for the audience. I am looking forward to conducting a second shoot. I am exited to see what results I get from an alternative location.
