Going straight into FMP I have felt a little vague and muddy with my ideas, leading to feeling uninspired and a bit directionless. I know vaguely that I want to create feelings of deep connection between the viewer and the imagery but I don’t know exactly what themes I would like the images to channel in order to achieve this. A way of combating the beginning of project funk was to create, hoping to be surprised and inspired by the results. The below images are some of the results.
An element that I really liked about this images is the lighting. The candlelight works to create a feeling of intimacy, as the lighting is soft and low, alluding to night time. I believe that the lighting has helped me to create imagery that provides space for connection. What I mean by this, is that the low soft lighting, brings in a sense of quiet and a stillness that naturally draws the viewer into the imagery.
