New Project

The bookwork project is now handed in - and of course I forgot to take photos of the final bookwork! Oh well, on to the next thing! Our new project is entitled 'Sight, Sound, Movement and the Body', so just a small area to work on then! I've already started thinking about it and have filled the first two pages of my new A3 sketchbook with mind maps and notes, and I've just been printing off some of my favourite portraits etc to go in the book. At first I was very tempted to just shoot off down one line of enquiry, thinking about train journeys, but after thinking about it some more I've decided to keep this one as open as I possibly can. I'm going to try and relate it as much as I can to personal experiences, because I think that will help to keep it large!
We're starting with some life drawing on Monday, which I am really looking forward to. Then we have a visit to the V and A on Tuesday, and next Tuesday we start some workshops with the media tutpr on film, and photography and other technical stuff.
I've already had a bit of a go with my camera which is a little Nikon cool pix, and with the Canon digital SLR which belongs to the household, but I don't consider as mine, because to be honest it scares me a bit. I haven't really got a clue how it works so I tend to use the Nikon if I can. I've done a bus journey - taking photos at each bus stops - from the bus not getting off, as I was on my way to the hairdressers! I've taken some time lapse pics of me preparing dinner - very exciting, and today took some pictures at the football.
So lots of ideas and trying to keep things as open as possible - with the last project things got very decided upon quite early on. I'm determined to keep this one as open as I can for as long as I can!
I was about to post an image but blogger is not co-operating - as it is I'm typing this in Times New Roman despite having selected Arial - we'll see what it posts it in! So no picture this time but I'll post on Monday!
