Brief:
This British Classics project's primary motive is to present the opportunity to explore London and concepts around British Cool through a British heritage item in a fresh and authentic way and, translate it into a series of styled media images.
The brief required me to investigate how this item might be translated through image making, art direction and styling for extraordinary results. It needed me to create a set of images (a styled media production) that would respond to and interpret the idea of British Classics, using an item sourced by me. The choice of item was solely my decision, however could not be an item of clothing. My aim was to create a concept and narrative using research to ‘re-image’ the item as my own media styled production.
Narrative:
The shoot is about the different emotions a woman who’s lost a loved one in the army, goes through. The narrative of the images take the viewer through a series of emotions ranging from the curiosity and the waiting for them to come back home, the grief and sadness when she finds out she’s lost them, the maturing and realization that her loss was for the country, the pride, respect, and remembrance.
