Some Stills from my second shoot

These are some more stills (they also have accompanying film) from my second shoot, i mostly focused on close ups during this one since i was using an indoor location. i thought that Amber my subject matter was perfect for filming because she looks so modern and i've tried to introduce contrast by making the photographs look older and grainy ( again lots were portrait so i blacked out a lot of the background so hopefully the photographs will look like they're appearing in amidst  the darkness which will hopefully instigate drama).

 The photograph above is a lot softer, ive burnt in the edges slightly to frame the portrait and increased the brightness and hue to give it that brown tint erasing the filter from the head ribbon and the flag itself to incorporate brighter elements. i made my subject look directly to the camera in hopes to create a more striking image and im not sure if it looks to posed.

 although i like how white the photograph above is and how theres a really sharp contrast i think the pose may be too forced ( i wanted to include some of people looking happy since the speech was about increasing british moral) but im not sure if it really works.

 i was exploring a cooling filter in this photograph which i thought would match the flag, again not totally convinced of its success but i like how the flag conceals the face and again ive blacked out the corners of the frame.

 the photograph above is one i think is really lovely, the sepia tone is warmer than the one used in Lauren's photographs and i love how soft it looks particularly on the face the pose is more relaxed than the previous ones and i think it could work well within my trailer.

this close up is another favourite- a hint of the flag which helps to segment the frame diagonally and make the eyes the main focal point- even the fringe runs parallel to the flags line. due to the eyeline and the framing of these elements i think the photograph is made more striking and dramatic which would work perfectly within my trailer to contradict the playful elements that fun throughout.
