Initial Plan

Below is my initial plan for my project, where my focus of the photographs is pub culture and the people who go to pubs. I have decided us 8 shots for my photography essay and have described what I plan each shot will consist of in my plan below;

Photo 1: Child sitting in pub with another child, each with a coke and bag of crisps,   laughing/playing- adjust settings on camera to take a photo that is bright, giving off an enjoyable atmosphere.

Photo 2: One of the two children this time on their own, with a finished bag of crisps and coke, looking bored next to their parents who are talking- adjust camera settings and change the angle to change the feel of the shot to a sadder one.

Photo 3: A group of young people having drinks together and a smile on their faces (empty drinks on table and perhaps a birthday card) maybe have one guy having a shot- camera settings changed to have a bright shot reflecting a happy mood.

Photo 4: One of people from the group of young people leaving the pub, the boy who was taking the shot is leaning on the wall looking very drunk- shot will be outside at night so need to adjust settings to be able to see clearly, the darkness outside will reflect the mood of the shot but I will take the shot from a high angle looking down on him as well.

Photo 5: A shot of a barmaid smiling as she is serving a customer- again adjust the camera settings to have a bright shot whilst having the barmaid stand in good lighting to emphasise her smile.

Photo 6: A shot of the same barmaid with her back to the bar looking very stressed out, may have a rude looking customer in the shot as well- adjust settings to darken the shot to make it seem a lot less joyful.

Photo 7: A shot of an older man by the bar looking quite happy talking to another customer-having the lighting at a normal brightness to make it seem quite normal and easy.

Photo 8: Shot of the same man at the bar in the same place but this time on his own looking quite lonely because he is on his own- adjust camera settings to have the shot a lot darker than the previous photo to give a more depressing feel to the shot.
