First ideas

Before I was accepted onto the HNC Photography course I had to attend an interview at the college and present some of my images. I then had to write a 500 word essay about what I would do for the Graded Unit.

I wrote some old tat about photographing castles or something. Now that I'm just about past Module 1, which involved a lot of darkroom stuff, I've decided I really want to complete the Graded Unit using film. I also like photographing people. And I also like Madonna. And guess what!

Greta Garbo, and Monroe Dietrich and DiMaggio Marlon Brando, Jimmy Dean On the cover of a magazine Grace Kelly; Harlow, Jean Picture of a beauty queen Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire Ginger Rogers, dance on air They had style, they had grace Rita Hayworth gave good faceLauren, Katherine, Lana too Bette Davis, we love you...

So, that's 16 Hollywood stars and I need to produce a minimum of 16 prints. I'm going to recreate 16 top hollywood portraits in the studio and hand print them.

More tomorrow. I've still got to finish Module 1.
