SCHOOL BOY
METHODOLOGY.
I photographed a younger student in uniform and I made him pose with his arms crossed, the uniform implies a key aspect of most children’s youth, school. I used a high key set-up to highlight the innocence of the model. On the other hand, to improve these photographs I needed to shine more light on the background to avoid shadows and creases from being visible on the sheet behind however I used the ‘curves’ tool on photo shop to amend the dark patches. To add to this, I used very stereotypical poses for my model, for example the crossed arms, in future I think it would be better to be more experimental with the positioning of my model.
