Session 4 09.03.12

Last week the seesion had to be cancelled due to illness.

This weeks session was mainly a review of the past work done so far, gearing up to aiming to produce a final self portrait.

Lesson Plan for this week:

The students were asked to go over their last home study piece in groups, discussing their ideas that will eventually lead forward to creating a final self portrait.
A short mindfulness exercise was done at the start of the lesson.
Students were asked to look at images they had took in the previous session and noted down their favourite image of themselves from the 3 different photography stations that were set up.

The students then had to complete a photography task, where by they had to take 3 seperate images: A full body image, an image taken of the head and shoulders, and an image of the hands, all done in the style of how the final portrait may be positioned in the coming sessions.
The homestudy was given at the end of the session, which I have completed too this week to try and get into the mindset myself for helping out to achieve the portraits in the coming weeks.

For next weeks session I have been asked to create some collage pieces for the group to look at to try and give them some ideas for what they may want to do with their portrait after it has been taken. Below are a couple of examples I have done for this,
