Post-Presentation Thoughts

After the presentation, I have come away with a few paths that I can take to alter my idea to better the overall pictures. First of all being the location.

I am happy with the variety of locations I have looked to present in my pre-production folder as it meant I could show a range. When presenting the locations, I felt that St Mary’s Guildhall was the best choice, due to both it being inside and also matching the historical past. I however was advised that the Medieval Bishop’s Palace, although a wrong time period, has a much more aesthetic look to it. Although the palace is in ruins, some of the rooms of the palace still remain; these could be perfect areas to create my photographs.


Another element that was discussed is the style in which I am going to create my final pieces. My original idea is that I would create a 5 image piece that shows a very selective chunk of the story, only showing the transformation of Arachne from human to spider (much resembling the work of Duane Michals). However it was brought up that I could actually breakdown the story and create between 3-4 of the main segments, this will not only enhance the fact that I’m telling a narrative, but also help to give it a stronger link to the actual mythological story.
