Research so far and possible ideas from this research

I havent taken any pictures yet simply because i didnt believe i had explored my topic further enough, im not sure whether i have left taking my photographs slightly late however this weekend i have arranged a kind of marathon photoshoot in order to make sure i have a wide range of potential photographs. soooooo here are some of my ideas that i have come up with:

  • my first and main idea that i hope will end up being my finals is exploring body language of young children. Therefore i know when i was younger i would dress up in my mums clothes and pretend that i was a 'grown up' however i think in modern society today young children arent just dressing up they are trying to act older than they really are. Sooo im going to be dressing girls up age ranged 9-14 and see how they pose in front of the camera- are they going to pose, will they know how to pose, where do they get these posing positions from. Secondly i will have a second camera to see how more natural the pictures are when they dont no the camera is on them?
  • My second idea is to take pictures of people who work at make up counters and use manipulation in photoshop to show how we are all looking the same and all using makeup as a disguise but the media are using it as a way of branding everyone as perfect
  • Thirdly i want to simply take portrait pictures of girls without any makeup and then use distortion-nose bigger, skin smoother, air brush but only on half of the face and show how we are being falsly shown what celebrities look like
I have lots of ideas just neeeeeed to be getting on with it really...
