Introduction.


We have been given a one week project which is based around yourself. We have to reasearch artists who have experimented with self portraiture and who have created collections around their personal lives. We have to show our lifestyle and personality through the photos that we take. The photos that we take can be in any location and in any way. The most common way of taking self portrait photos is by using a tripod and setting the camera to self timer. We have got to produce one self-portrait which may be used as a starting point for our Personal & Professional Portfolio which will be used in University and job interviews.  The self portrait must show our knowledge of visual language to portray how you would like to be seen by others. We can create these images by using props, details, clothing or makeup.
