Photo shoot planning document

 

What emotional impact do you want your photography do have upon the reader? How?

I want the reader to be curious and interested by my photography. I will achieve this by using images that are different and unique. This will be shown through the poses of my model and the facial expression. I want the tone to be quite serious but eye catching.

What personnel do you need? Who are you going to photograph?

I have chosen my model. She is 16, studies music. She is mid height, brunette and easily adaptable which is perfect as I will be experimenting with poses clothing and props.

What props will you need?

I will be using a guitar and possibly a microphone.

How are you going to emphasise colour?

Emphasising colour should be done by the lighting of the room, or could later be edited by using Photoshop.

Have you briefed your personnel/models?

Yes.

What lighting will you need? Any other equipment?

Several lighting techniques will be used. Low angle lighting will be used for the images that make the model look important as the light will brighten up the face and neck.

Where will you shoot? Will you need a backdrop?

I will be taking the images within my house, using a plain wall as it will be easier for editing.

Make-up? Costume?

The make-up will not be too intense but will highlight the eyes and lips. The costumes will be changed three times. Each giving the model a slightly different look.
