Problem Solving/ Evaluation

During the first week of planning I have already ran into a few things that could possibly go wrong, here are some examples ;

The first thing that didn't go to plan was finding someone to model for me, its all well once you've planned your shoot and arranged the wardrobe however arranging the model is one of the most complicated parts of a shoot. this is because they are a whole new person with a completely different schedule and this makes it complicated to arrange a day for the shoot, un fortunately for me I decided to have both a female and male model to show how the styles contrast during the era and because of this it has made it has increased the amount of difficulties trying to book a studio when both can make it. The models could also cancel last minute which would mean a set back on when to shoot.

Other problems can link to the studio for example, booking the studio itself can be a real set back. This is because many people will want to be using the studio at the same time as there are multiple classes having to take finals as well as us. Another problem faced in the studio can be when the shoot is actually ongoing, the lighting could show up different to how I planned or one of the lights may not connect to the trigger when taking photos or the background might not work as well with the clothes, not a good contrast.

A problem I could face is that my clothes may not be able to arrive in time for the shoot, I also plan to go to London to find more 90s outfits and if I cant make it that will also delay the final shoot. the clothes might also not fit the models the way I need them to for the look I plan to re create.

More possible obstacles may arise as I continue.

22nd Of May

Last week I managed to get my shoot completed, I used 3 different outfits to make up for the fact that I could only get one model.I also shot many photos of each outfit and, because the studio is unavailable when my model is again, I used two different backgrounds to make it seem like I have completed two shoots. One was just a simple white to really make the clothes stand out because they are the main focus of the shoot, to add a more modern twist on the 90s fashion I used a yellow background to contrast with the clothes to make a more interesting composition.
Besides the studio being very warm the shoot went quite well and I managed to take more than enough photos, the hardest part was choosing only 40 photos from the 400 I took.

Heres an example to the white background shoot;
