The week and break plans and goals

By the end of the week all the planning for the November-December 6 weeks should be finished. That will possibly be posted here, but if not the Google Doc below will have the complete list of plans for all projects. The plan for Thanksgiving break is to shoot the Holliday Shoot and the Flashback image. I have my own Macro lens, so that may get finished if there is extra time in the week.

November- December Planning.
Long Exposure: Maybe try something with running? Maybe Black and White Minimalism. William George Wadman most likely.
Portraits Outdoor: Pretty improvisational with Maya, hopefully
Holiday Prompts:
  • To make snow buy a foam ball and shave it into tiny particles.
  • Perhaps buy fake snow. Maybe here http://www.thomasfx.com/Instant-Snow-1-lb_p_7686.html          (Available in 44 pound bags, unsure if safe or for how much)
  • Frostbite tutorials in Youtube.
  • To simulate night, use one or two lights, create a rig to block out the sunlight, almost like a tent. It’s better to control the dark then to shoot at night.

|Merry: A couple are walking through the snowy landscape, holding hands. Maybe taken from behind. Yellow-Orange tint, bright and fun.
|Light: The sunset.
(Maybe show the couple trying to get home in an extra picture)
|Cold: One of the girls showing signs on frostbite. Portrait of just one person.
|Together: The couple huddling together for warmth, still night.
|Bright: Face(s) or body's) covered in snow. Pale
|Color: The brightly colored (maybe faded) coats of the corpses, lying on the ground or in a stream or pool of water.
Macro Shoot: Maybe flowers. I adore taking pictures of flowers, but I’ll probably just freeze some stuff, maybe flowers.
Flashback image: Model: Most likely Gus, maybe Will, maybe both. Really dorky, really cheesy, Lame sweater (Maybe use dads) dorky smile. Really go out on the lame cheesy vibe.
Final: Perhaps with Gus, Maybe get Maia out of class. There are a few options. Maybe try something similar to the Neon Demon. Images in Inspiration folder, along with this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdp2_G4Q-C4 Maybe bedazzle face?

The Only Thing.

The only thing worse than digging a grave...

is filling it in.

The only thing worse than filling it in...

is wanting them back.
