This is my final image for my portrayal as and iconic villain and again I'm not pleased with outcome.I feel like the is no connection to the original photo from the one i have taken.Again taking this photo proved difficult because general discomfort i felt in portraying someone else.

Hasselblad portraiture project research

This is part of my final portraiture project research where i felt i wanted to be more creative than to just create simple portraits.Using the hasselblad i shot the two above photos with the intention of them not fully being in focus.The reason for this is i had recently researched one of many photographers i admire Deborah Turberville, she created many fashion photos which all have a disturbingly eerily feel to them.
This was just an idea one in which i did do intentionally but did not work. i would have preferred if it had been in focus a little,using a tripod would have changed things completely and this idea may have panned out the way i had imagined it to.
Albert Watson

I admire Albert Watson's two portrayals of Kate Moss and how two different layouts and can produce very different things.For instance the photograph on the left creates a disgruntled,lost,unstable,on edge,uncomfortable to name a few. I'd suggest has been created by the darker backdrop and the use of light creating shadow along the bottom of her back and then up her spine emphasising it dramatically.Whereas the image on the right has a calm,feminine,less hostile rhythm too it with the help of a lighter back drop and the use of light directly upon her creating shadowing behind her.Although both very uniquely different from another in the sense of mood they create they are both equally beautiful in there own way, they draw your eyes attention for different reasons.
