Museum Project (Spurtles, Photography)

During creativity and concept, we were set an assignment to come up with an idea for an exhibition for the museum of Liverpool. We were all each given a topic to work on and asked to go away and think of our own exhibition and then present a 15 minute presentation at the end of this. The topic that me and my group were given was Photography. Which I was very happy with because of how big my interest is with this hobby, so I was really looking forward to creating this exhibition. We all went away and came up with separate ideas that we could do for this exhibition and also created a spider diagram filled with ideas that we could use.














Once these ideas were created, we started to narrow them down to one whole idea that we could easily work with. The type of idea that we decided to go with was an old fashioned/vintage photography exhibition using Lomography cameras and fish eye lens's and old fashioned cameras and new up to date DSLR cameras. We thought it would be a good idea to compare the two different types of photography and express how times have changed with cameras and pictures. We also thought it would be a good idea to try and create vintage photos using Photoshop and compare them to original vintage photographs. All of these ideas were then jotted down onto another few pieces of paper.

It wont let me rotate the picture. Me and my group were so pleased with how everything was coming along, before we knew it , it was time to present our ideas to a panel with our 15 minute presentation. I thought it would be a good idea to bring in a collection of old to new cameras that we had at home to set the mood as well as having fish eye lens's and different sized lens's. I was so pleased with how well our presentation went considering how nervous we were thinking we would have to talk for 15 minutes straight! A link to our presentation we gave is shown below.
