Propsel for Unit 302

Unit Proposal
Joe Faulkner
8th January


With this project I really want to look at my technical skills and to use the best quality film I can either 10,8 black and white or 5,4 transparency. For the project I want to lead off from the work I have been doing for the Vermeer project. I would like to create a feel of tension with in the image and to have it taken at the peak of the moment so it becomes possible to make you own stories about the subjects like some of Gregory Credson work and Erwin Olaf with his misery series.

Then the other route I been thinking about and again it lead off the last project is to use a very deadpan effect like the New Topographic who I am looking at in my dissertation and the work of Gursky and to look at patterns with in the city looking at tower blocs and how in such a impersonal area you have all these families putting their own stamp on each flat. Then looking at the suburbs and the patterns and the uniformity.



Above is the propsel i handed in i dont think by any means saying what im doing, i think its a starting point and i think im going to have to do alot more work before i have worked out what i want to look at. i do think i will conture with the landscapes i just need to do more reasurch till i can work out my statement and leave the first idea mainly because i would like this to feed from my disertation work
