Little Evaluation

Little evaluation

At the beginning of the project I was probably the most excited I’ve been for a project so far in my time at the college and it remained that way until I had to start taking short cuts to get the project completed. I think I was a bit ambitious when I proposed what I wanted to do to my tutor. Doing a 160 mile journey in a month and a half while I have other projects and work commitments wasn’t going to work out the way I wanted it to, no matter how much I planned my time. Even though it didn’t entirely go to plan I did come out with some good images that will benefit my portfolio.

As this was my first attempt at a photobook my research was obviously focused on how my images are presented and what methods are available to me to help me achieve my goals, rather than look at photographer images only. I think my research was successful, as I was able to go about this part of the project with ease and was able to create a decent quality product. Is I mentioned earlier the hardest part was getting all the images done before I had to start to pull things together, but at least I know for next time, to do something challenging but achievable.

So now I’m looking back on the project there would be a few drastic things I would change, such as the scope of the project idea. I would do a journey around the well-known places of the Lake District or compared the west coast to the east coast through a journey of landmarks, something along those lines, still based around weather and landscape.
