Media influence on children No. 3

University Project 3

My Concept:
Knife / Violence

Bad influences of Media on children (Re-did using different material - paddlepops. The teacher was paranoid and threatened me for bordering plagiarism for the first one (copying her work)

Long story short, she thinks I was inspired by her work (which I have never seen before, but she insists that I have seen), and that her work used lego as well (which again, I didn't know). My concept is different to hers by a significant margin, my compositions are significantly different as well, my lighting is significantly different as well, but she was the one marking it so I had to change (at the last minute, unfortunately. But I still like my changes better anyway so it works out).

Short Project Brief:

Research and develop a concept for a staged narrative sequence of no less than 6 photographs that communicates a story or message to an audience across the city on billboards, bus shelters etc.

In developing your narrative be aware that your images are intended to be displayed (theoretically speaking) in a variety of locations across the city, and that they may be encountered in a random order, so avoid a strictly sequential narrative.
