Work in Progress

The main challenge for me in this module is to get into the habit of documenting how I work and what I am doing, alongside doing basic video editing. I decide to try and make a short practice video of a trip a recently took to a neighbouring seaside town near where I live, Birchington in Kent. The video is below, there is currently no sound except for the final few minutes where I discuss an accidental discovery when my printer ran out of ink.

Using the images below, I merged them to create abstract double exposures as shown in the video, using Snapseed.

Figs 1-3: Laura Marsh, Photo Walk, 2021

Figs 4-5: Laura Marsh, 2021

Out of these two images, I prefer the 1st (fig 4) as you have more of an idea of the location and surroundings I was in. Using a horizon to gives depth and distance. The texture of the pavement gives the image rough look, almost as if it is badly pixelated.

Fig 5: although has an interesting appearance, I feel does not portray my idea as well. the result is interesting but I don't believe it communicate the message of feelings and emotion as well as fig 4.

The images below are scans of the low ink prints that came out when i was preparing for a weekly task. I like the appearance of the images and how the colours were almost metallic. Where or not I explore this further will be remained to see.
