Task 6 Final Project Proposal

Bird-eyes View

 

 

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In this final project, I want to examine the interactions of the people on campus with their greater environment. I want to see how students interact with buildings and other campus structures and how they go along with their lives. The themes and subjects of this final project are to show how the students live their live daily.

Some of the background information for this project is that I see a lot of students around campus every day who walk across the campus. Students do not seem to fully appreciate the true beauty

I was inspired by the work and theme of different photographers such as Michael Wolf, Taryn Simon, and Brian Ulrich. I really how they incorporate their environments and the style of spacing in within the works of these photographers.

 

OUTCOMES

  • I will produce several dozen digital photographs of around campus
