Exploring themes



My initial idea was focused on knitwear. I don't know a lot about knitwear but I am interested in the making of it. I like the way it can be placed on the body in unconventional ways and still look amazing. To place knit on the body in this way would be an aspect of diversity I could explore. I would use knit different ways in which they are normally used or accepted and display them in a non-traditional way.

Group critique notes
This idea is more suited to my style
Reflects diversity through clothing rather than using "obvious" model choices for topic 
Experiment with location and studio photography
Experiment with movement
Visit the V&A
I took these comments into consideration and decided to pursue this idea.

Another idea I came up with was to explore the idea of astrology in the news. Recently NASA have made huge breakthroughs is scientific history, which is an area that interests me. I started to look into space like photo shoots, involving a lot of pre production e.g. hair and makeup. I am confident in computer based production and would be happy to collaborate with hair and makeup artists to achieve this concept.

Group critique notes
This idea is interesting, but it doesn't suit my style of work
Looks fun to produce, but may not reflect idea of diversity 
Experiment with idea first
Try out makeup & hair
Although I was passionate to work with an idea that I hadn't tried out before, the comments my group made were valid and  decided to abandon this idea.
