fmp-Covid 19 Project Update

Unfortunately due to Covid 19 I have had to make changes to my project. As I can no longer go outise, source models, shoot on location and have access to the university facilies and software, I have had to change my original concept slightly and cancel all shoots I had planned for the future. As my fmp project concept was based on youth I am able to use myself as a model and muse for my project going forward and am planning to document my time in quarantine. 

As it is something I have never experiened living in before I think it would interesting to document. I am going to do a self portrait series and experiement which photographing myself using the self timer setting on my camera. I want the series to express how I am feeling in lockdown, what I am doing and how I look. As the only contact I have with the outside world will be virtural I am also going screenshot picture of online firends to capture what they are doing at home. 

Before starting my self portrait series I am going to research how other artists and photographers have docuemnted their time in quarantined. This will inspire me and motivate me to get creative at home. I am also going to research self portraiture photography and begin to to make as tudio at home.  I am going to keep my camera on me at all times, even on my daily walks to capture things that inspire me and represent the unprecedented times we are living in .
