Organised
Yesterday was a day fully committed to becoming organised. Planning and sorting through a backlog of projects, I’ve whittled them down to three projects to work on at a time.
1/ ATM Family Portraits
2/ Shadow Portraits
3/ Sculptural Freedom
I’ve seriously restricted any work on other projects – I have to finish some pieces for my website. I’m also committing myself to working on 3 opportunities at a time, so I can get moving.
So, proof here that I’ve reigned in all the phaffing around, is that I’ve made a start on the ATM Family Portraits. Most simply, these will be a series of family portrait photos taken at the site of an ATM. The idea came to me as an awkward image, in opposition to the staged bucolic family photos from the past.
These preliminary collages were useful in determining the kind of image I’m after. I want the family to stand in line waiting in the queue with their wallets and purses ready. But I definitely don’t want anyone else in the picture so I’m thinking that there is going to be some logistical issues here. It’s not going to be easy to get everyone together either, I’ve set myself up with a challenge.
Next on the list is some research. Is it legal to take photos at an ATM?
