Shoot Three- Friendships Within Youth Culture- Straight Images

As spoken about on my shoot analysis for this shoot, having a group of people shown with a studio image of one of the subjects on their own was something I wanted to experiment with because it gives the audience the chance to create a personality of the subject on their own and then when they are with their friends- at times the point of view/ opinion about a person would change depending on who they are shown with. The Photo on the left was taken within the studio during a high key lighting experiment.

This image is symbolic in showing the differences in friendships, stereo-typically youths are labelled all being the same and having the same identity/ values. However the use of the pole split down the middle of this image shows the difference between these two subjects- the ripped jeans on the left subject with the long coat and low neck top and then the right subject with a high neck, smart trousers and a short coat wrapped around her back. The symbolism of the pole shows the differences/ split between these subjects yet their facial expressions and body language shows how they are comfortable with each other.

With this image, it appears set up/ staged, yet it is not and I believe it shows friendship really clearly because it shows the dependence on one another. Furthermore the symbolism in this image is really key into showing friendships in youth culture because my subjects are really clear and sharp yet with the train moving it creates the blur behind them, the audience may form an implied meaning from this suggesting they are sectioned off from everyone else- the anti social behavior normally associated alongside the youth culture.

With many of my images to show I found different spots and asked my subjects to stand there yet there weren't told when I was going to take the image, I wanted my images to capture their friendship as best as I could. I feel this image has achieved this because it shows two of the subjects mid conversation and the other subject appears to be glancing into the distance but is still probably listening.

Finally this image shows the influences of friendship because it shows how stereotypically, it is suggested that what youth see, they do- "monkey see monkey do". This is mainly through the media and I believe this image clearly shows this because the subjects are in very similar positions than the graffiti on the wall.
