1-1 Mentor meeting - Initial ideas

Feedback has been given in regards to developing and ensuring clarity within my ideas from my photography mentor from my proposal. The feedback consisted of -

• Developing the story-line -

Starting to think about how to write the poems and take the photographs. To do so, firstly think about the actual story-line and conduct idea development. Get the story clear to then highlight the key themes, then write phrases and consider how the words will be reflected through the photographs next to them. 
Link the photo to the phrases and poems - words linking to the characters feelings, what they see, what they're thinking.
The character seeing something - the photograph being what they see and the poems being the thoughts they have from that. 

• Reference the concept behind the project to the theme 

The story-line starts with the disruptive society, this signifying the borough before London's Borough of Culture. The story developing into a landscaped theme, based around the improvements the borough has / will further have. Make this clear, that the fiction reflects real life. 

•  Location 

After story-line development, figure out locations to use for photographing in terms of landscape and how using these areas will help develop your story.  Anywhere specific, important landmarks? Practise taking photos in said locations, and how these locations link.

• Research 

Research urban landscape photographers,
Research Ansel Adams, his use of shadows and ihglights under landscape photography
