Proposal

Subjects:

The subject that I am going to base my photography around is urban environment. I have a very interesting urban environment on my doorstep that I am able to use for experimental photography.

Locations:

I am planning to shoot out of college in the city of York. I am going to go to locations with an urban environment feel. The potential locations in York that I am planning on shooting at are the train station, down by the river, the walls of York, The Shambles/Market, Clifford’s tower. These locations show a lot of an urban environment that will be exactly what I want from my images.

Techniques:

The techniques I am going to use are a Photomontage which is an image broken down into different pieces and then put together to make the image. I will use this technique in the Photoshop where there is a tool on the navigation bar called automate which allows me to carry out this technique. Then using the photo merge tool I can upload the images to Photoshop and reposition them in the tool for it to construct the technique.

Reasoning:

My reason for using this technique is that when researching I saw an image that was from the urban environment area and it had this technique. The technique on the image worked really well. Following this I tried an image out for myself as a quick sample image and I really liked what the result was. It turned a picture that potentially is quite boring to look at into something interesting and eye catching. So this is my reasoning for choosing this technique.
