Due to the success of my previous shoots on graffiti, I wanted to reshoot them to experiment different ways. This meant, for this shoot I will be making a trip back up to London- Leake Street. Even though this shoot will be similar to the previous shoot in Leake Street, I aim to take more photos of the graffiti mess left behind the artists- this way I will be able to show to my audience the appearance of youths without them being in the photo. Youths are stereotypically seen as mess people. If you were to ask some in the older generation how they would imagine a teenagers bedroom, the word messy would definitely come to mind.
Even though I didn't focus on the mess last shoot, I still managed to gain images of broken bottles and mess which gives the impression youths were there. This create a negative stereotyped view for my audience, suggesting they don't care for their surroundings.
Furthermore, I believe the idea of shooting the rubbish left behind will show my audience a lack of respect- they don't clear up behind them, leaving aside what ever and not throwing it away.
For this shoot, I hope to take photos of rubbish such as beer cans and spray cans because I believe these two factors would make it very clear the age group who were there/ I am trying to create.
This shoot will also differ from my other shoot at Leake Street because I will be going there late morning- midday so it should be much lighter as my last shoot was taken around 6-7 o'clock at night. This will hopefully make my colours in this shoot much more vibrant; therefore this will not be a black and white shoot; and hopefully have more people there- leaving behind more rubbish.
