Project Activity

Exercise: An active Portrait


My inspiration for this exercise was one of my friends, he enjoys spending a lot of free time gaming, I had an idea of how I wanted to capture him and explained my ideas with him. Because this is something that the subject enjoyed doing and was completely natural to him I knew that having the distraction of having your photo taken gaming would not really phase him.

I tried to convey in the shots the sheer concentration that Clive was displaying whilst playing the video game, He had completely zoned out to me and was completely focused on the game he was playing.

I think the pictures convey this and the shots I have selected give the viewer an insight into the world of the gamer.
