Test Images - sheets

Here are the contact images from the test shoot I did about my Fashion is Rubbish assignment. I have only done the Tin Foil and the newspaper right now. Although I do have more materials planned.

• Bin Bags - Black or White?
• Tin Foil - The reflections and the shadows are interesting.
• Newspaper - I like the array of different colours that are brought by the articals and the adverts
• Comic Books - With the newspaper being so interesting, I thought the bright bold colours might be interesting..
• Cling Film - Something different, which could create an interesting effect.
  
  
  So these are the things that I like the sound of... Any opinions?
  
  Have I come against any problems?
  
• Time management - With a big shoot planned (7.11.12) that went wrong... Every single model didn't turn up, which meant the shoot was cancelled. I had to tell my MUA and hairstylists' to go home, which made me feel bad. This has put a delay in my images and work. I have re-booked the shoot, using a modelling agency. I have re-arranged for 14.11.12. I am looking forward to this shoot... I also have to manage my time more effectively, as my desired output is obviously my book from Blurb, which can take anywhere from 7-10 days for delivery AFTER printing... So this is something that needs to be seriously considered. I do have a back up plan if this does fail.
  
• The materials - Where as these are really easy materials to come across, getting them onto the models, keeping them there and making them look like clothing was proving to be hard. On the above images, I used selotape on the newspaper to keep it attached. Although this wasn't too good, since the paper didn't manage to cover much, and you can see her underwear, (oops!). Other than the selotape and the newspaper, the tin foil was proving to be very itchy on the models skin, actually going as far as to scratch... So this is going to be a problem..
  
• How do I intend on fixing these problems? - I am intending on going round charity shops, or to Primark and purchasing some cheap skirts and vest tops, and attaching the materials to these. I would only need to attach the foil and paper, since cling film can easily be attached to the skin. However, this might take away from the point I am trying to make. Especially with me buying into the concept of "cheap clothes". This is something I need to consider when making my decisions.
  
  
  Well, thats all for now, next update will probably be when I've done my shoot and I'm showing you guys some of the images from there.
  
  Thanks for reading!
