Road to Wonderland. (self-portrait progress)

Title: Toby in Wonderland.

 

“I wanted to portray a sense of adventure and mystery,

all in the process of a dream.”

 

-Initially many of the photos of the subject looked like she was aware of the presence camera,as if the adventure was staged,

-Prof suggested to source out and select photos where the subject was not looking at the camera, to exude more nonchalance in the said adventures.

71.2            41.2

-To make the photos portray more of a dream like state, I lowered the saturation and increased the contrast.

-A combination of the two techniques/selections would result in the final outcome of the installation.
