I went out and experimented taking some photos for my project today. Due to coronavirus I was unable to go to a skatepark as the local one had been locked off so instead I shot some street skating.
I was quite happy with the pictures I took, however I felt like they lacked the colour and feeling I was aiming for . The subjects in the photo were quite spaced out and I want a more communal feel to the project. As it was my first attempt shooting skateboarders, I was content with the results.
TO DO:
-See if I can find a skatepark that hasn’t been locked off to the public so I can take more test shots
-Begin writing up articles with the interviews I have recieved
-Learn more about colour balancing in outdoor shots and how to position the subjects best to compliment the photos
