Much like Shoot Ten, I hope to reshoot my Leake street graffiti shoot. However, in my last shoot, I focused more on the subjects I was with- taking photos of them rather than the actual graffiti on the tunnel. Therefore, when I go to Leake street this time, I hope to take more photos of the graffiti itself; this is because I believe the graffiti can massively produce a stereotyped personality of youths, even without them being in the frame. Graffiti is a way of expression for youths to create art with meaning.
When I come to editing this shoot, I hope to keep all my photos in colour because I want all the photos to provide bold colours to stand out. I could have chosen to use black and white editing however I believe that would loose the meaning of being bold and individual.
The main inspiration for this shoot is Dan Boulton. Even though Boulton's work is in black and white, it appears quite "hectic" and busy which is the same effect in which I hope to recreate these photos without the subjects.
The techniques I am intending to experiment with within this shoot will include wide angles and close ups but also depending on how dark/light the tunnel is, I will experiment with my flash on my camera. Normally, I do not like using the artificial light as it makes it look fake, however I will try testing it out and experiment to see whether the graffiti looks better with or without it.
