19. Minor Tasks - Photoshoots planning

After deciding the details of major task you will know better what kind of images will fit into your minor ones, what kind of requirements you have in terms of composition and concept.

You need to have prepared at least 5 photos created by you that will be used in the digipak/poster/film postcard/magazine article. All photos, images, designs you include need to be original, created exclusively by you.

For each minor task you will need to create a separate post on your blog with the following information:

a) Idea & concept - research and motivation

What is the concept/theme/topic/subject of your photoshoot?

Why did you choose that specific concept/theme, etc? Why is it suited for your digipak/poster/film postcard/magazine article?

What sources of inspiration you have for creating this photoshoot? What did you research in order to get to your idea?

b) Models - * ONLY if different to the characters used already in major task

Photographs of your chosen model

Why have you chosen this model?

Why is she/he suitable for your genre and audience?
