Intentions/purpose of the Photography to be undertaken.
I have a great interest in portraiture Photography so I have chosen to do this Theme as I would like to learn more about this side to Photography.
On the Theme of People and Portraits I aim to produce Portraits of friends and family
Reasons for selection of theme (including inspiration from the work of others)
I have taken portraits and would like to develop further and become more creative in the overall effect with the image that I will produce,using photographers such as Alex Lake, Barry Read, Andrew Macpherson, and Anthony Saul as inspiration to help me.
The photo imaging equipment and medium that will be used and why.
The camera I shall be using will be a Canon PowerShot S3 SLR
The Tripod I will use for still life Portrait Photography.
I shall also be using Photoshop for Editing.
Canon Powershot S3 SLR.
. 12x optical zoom lens
. Optical image stabilizer. 6.0 Megapixel
. 2.0'' vari-angle LCD
. 30fps VGA movies with stereo sound and photo in movie feature
. DIGIC 11, iSAPS and flexizone AF/AE for fast, precise results and 2.3fps continuous shooting
. 20 shooting modes and my colours photo effects
. High ISO Auto and ISO 800 for low light flexibility
.Widescreen (16:9) recording
Techniques that will be used and how they will convey the visual message.
I shall try out different settings on the Camera, like exposure times, shutter speeds, aperture settings, Lens Zoom, and depth of field.
I will be using a Tripod for Portrait Photography.
By using Photoshop it will help by allowing me to edit some of the Photos that I choose and also to be able to make them into Black and Whites and also H.D.R images. By changing the exposure this will help with any sombre effects that I want to capture.
I will also use props, make up and mirrored reflection to help create visual effects on some the images.
How light quality can be used to help convey the visual message.
Experimenting at different times of the day to get different light quality to deliver the atmospheric image I want to capture.
In different weather conditions, and in different venues and using artificial light.
And at location making the most of the best natural light that there is and how best to use it.
Safety Considerations.
. Taking care of any Equipment used
. Keeping an eye on weather conditions and making sure Equipment is kept dry.
. Making sure Location is safe.
. Asking permission first for any shots of people especially Children that will be taken.
Statement of Intent. Principles of Location Photography, Reportage.
Intentions/purpose of the Photography to be undertaken.
I am choosing to follow the Reportage Theme as I have always had a major interest in Event Photography particularly in Concerts and taking Photo of Celebrities. I have had some success in publishing some celebrity photos.
I am hoping to visit special Events such as a Fun Fair, Alton Towers Fireworks, Scarefest, and a medieval themed event. I will be producing images which will teach me how to use the Manual settings such as using slow Shutter speeds, Aperture settings and the ISO and also using depth of field.
Reasons for selection of theme (including inspiration from the work of others)
I like to attend Events such as Concerts and Gigs and from these have been inspired by various concert programmes of Music Artists where the photographers captured the Artist in motion performing on stage and also using a set to photograph by using fashion,lighting and props to create a scene and image that goes with their look and style.
I have been inspired by Carrie Musgrave and Carsten Windhorst who are Music Photgraphers that cover Event Photography.
The photo imaging equipment and medium that will be used and why
The camera I shall be using will be a Canon PowerShot S3 SLR
The Tripod I will use for keeping the camera steady when trying out long shutter speeds.
I shall also be using Photoshop for Editing if I feel the Photograph needs more effect.

Techniques that will be used and how they will convey the visual message.
I shall try out different settings on the Camera, like exposure times, shutter speeds, aperture settings, Lens Zoom, and depth of field. With some of the Events like Fireworks and the Fun Fair I will be shooting at night so I will have to use the Manual settings.
I will also shoot different times of the day and if I im in a venue with low lighting then I will have to use Manual and the apature to allow more light into the camera.
I will also be use Photoshop.
How light quality can be used to help convey the visual message.
Taking the Photos at different times of the day depending on the Event, and assessing what light is best for what I am wanting to portray.
If working inside a venue with lighting used, then I shall try different settings on the camera to make the best possible image and to make sure that I dont shoot into the light directly.
I will especially practise night photography to try out different shutter speeds.
Safety Considerations.
. Taking care of any Equipment used
. Keeping an eye on weather conditions and making sure Equipment is kept dry.
. Making sure Location is safe.
. Asking permission first for any shots of people especially Children that will be taken.
. If in a a busy venue keep Equipment safe and out of danger to any one around.
