How do you think your images relate as a whole? Are they cohesive?

Create a Body of Work

In this assignment you are going to create a small body of work. Choose  one  of the types of photography covered in Unit 3, and create a group of  4 images  in that type. You will need to choose a topic to take images of. The images need to be relative and cohesive as a group, meaning the viewer will be able to tell all images were created by the same person. You will need to explain your creative process from beginning to end. Submit your images with answers to the following questions. Please answer each question in a complete sentence.

 ***PLEASE NOTE THAT IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU TOOK ALL OF THE IMAGES YOU SUBMIT FOR YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY ASSIGNMENTS. *** 

· Why did you choose that type of photography?

· How did you decide what you were going to shoot?

· What did you find most difficult when creating these images?

· What aspect did you like the most? The least?

· How do you think your images relate as a whole? Are they cohesive?

· Explain your process from beginning to end. (How did you come up with the idea? Did you look at any influences or other artist’s work for inspiration? Did you write down your ideas or just go with the flow? How did you decide which images to use?)

It would be best to put all images and answered questions in one document. You can do this in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or Google Slides.

If you are unsure, please look up other artist’s bodies of work. Here are some famous photographer’s examples. These may help inspire you. I have included 4 images from each of their books so you can see how they are cohesive. Below are also the types of photography to choose from.
