Meetings

As day by day goes by, and with another nationwide lockdown maybe just around the corner, it’s always best to carry on with daily life (with the proper PPE pre-cautions), I have been able to arrange meetings with 2 organisations to do with my “Behind the Scenes” documentary project.

The first is my local church, St Mary’s RC, in whifflet (Coatbridge), where I will be discussing my project plan with the parish priest and to determine how far I can go and what I am not allowed to photograph as somethings might be considered as a sensitive nature as people who attend the church, don’t want to have a camera in their face while sitting quietly and praying.

My second is to go to a hairdressers/barbershop, and photograph a place in Glasgow called Rebel Rebel. They have got 2 official shops, which they have trained professionals, cutting and styling a large part of the people hair, and men’s beards to make them more stylish. This is idea came to me when I, myself during the long nationwide lockdown from March till July, wasn’t able to get a haircut and it didn’t help me with my self confidence, and especially with the pandemic that is around us, it sometimes fealt that “the end of times” were upon us. So it’s more about the self esteem, confidence and overall happiness getting ones hair cut.

When I have an update on how they meetings went, and what I can/cannot do, I will take shape of the items in my head to see what I make a story into.

Stay tuned ;D

Productive Meeting

Productive Meeting

As Covid-19 is still very much into effect in today’s world, education is still going ahead physically and virtually. For the past few weeks I’ve been attending Zoom virtual meetings where the class gets together and the lectures have the topic at hand. Today’s class was all about brainstorming ideas for people’s individual topics to photograph for their documentary.

I have narrowed my ideas to:

1. Animal welfare (RSPCA’s, Zoo Workers, animal rescue’s, etc),
2. Charities that have been affected by recent events,
3. Take inspiration from another photographer with my own twist,
4. and other ideas that have been floating around in my head which I’ve not said about as to whether or not it’s an idea whether I can pursue or not if there are anymore local lockdowns.

If there are anymore local lockdowns, then my project might be affects by it and will have to consider another path in my project. Stay tuned for more
