  Strength  This still image shows two different shadows of people standing next to each other. In the still image one shadow is taller than the other this could give the image an impression of strength as it gives one of the shadows a position of power.  Poverty  This image features an empty wallet that could give the image an impression of poverty as wallets are usually used to store money. I have also played with a low depth of field in this image to focus on the specific part of the wallet that usually holds the money to emphasise this part of the image. Love  In this image I have used a few elements to try and give the impression of love for example the love heart could be considered a symbol of love. I have also thought about what kind of surface to place the heart on for example the carpet could be considered warm and soft things that are also associated with love.

Single Camera Essay

In single camera productions the directors tend to shoot the same scene over and over again from different angles from what I have already sai...

Primary Research Mental Health

  Primary Research Mental Health  I wanted to see if being in nature actually helped mental health to fact check for my documentary  so I asked random strangers if it did. I asked them a yes or no question that specifically states “Do you find that nature helps you mental health for example helps with stress?” I also asked these people at the location I chose to film. Which was in nature anyway so I think I was more likely to get a reliable response. Even if I did not get the results that I needed, I always had my own experiences to rely upon as this is a topic that I have looked into even before I started this documentary project. I asked 15 people and surprisingly to me 12 out of 15 people said yes it does I'm not sure whether they were completely true to their words but there's tons of other research conducted that also proves this point for example ( https://www.bbc.com/ownit/its-personal/nature-can-help-your-mental-health )
