Shot List

I've decided that I want to do composites as my topic and build on my imaging skills. My plan is to focus on a similar style to Alexia Sinclair; building one image out of a combination of location and studio shots. Although this technique is used mainly as an art form, composite images are also used in things such as advertisements, movie posters, cd covers etc. so I would like to look at it from a commercial angle as well.


Shot List:
  • Produce a series of 6 fantasy based location composite images that include people shot in the studio
  • Select 5 existing advertising campaigns and create a composite photograph for each that could be used in the campaign, the product and therefore the campaign is completely up to you
  • Produce a series of 4 magazine front cover portraits that use constructed composite backgrounds in the style of the painting, the Mona Lisa
  • Submit at least 1 recorded step by step compositing process - a tutorial of the compositing process for that final image
