As experimentation for the assignment abstract fear, I decided to produce a small amount of images. The images are unedited, and were shot indoors at night using an adjustive light source, which has three light settings and was set to medium. This created a dark reddish effect in accordance to the horror theme. I wanted the images to be slightly out of focus as I wanted the viewer to feel uncomfortable and have an irritability with the images. I also wanted to experiment with this as I have never used it as a way of communicating a theme in a project before.
Before I shot the images, I did not research any artists for inspiration but instead had relied on knowledge I had of my idea of the theme. This was interesting as I could review in my mind certain instances which I have felt fear.
I wanted to create an unidentified narrative background to the images and wanted them to follow a story which could be created by the viewer and produce an imaginative response.
Although these images serve a purpose in terms of an experimental and research project, I am not impressed by the images, and feel this is a starting point which can be improved on massively. I would improve on the narrative by making It more clear and also the lighting and overall appearance as I feel they look very amateur. A way I would Improve them is by using professional lighting.
