Project Proposal

Senior Studio I Art 4048  David Miller    Artist: Kort Woycheshin   Intent: My goal is to gain a better understanding of what ‘art’ photography is and what goes into it.

Final assignment preparation

This was an interesting realization I had whilst watching death of a salesman and my goal in this project is to have the theatrical of the play bleed through into my photographs. Kacie seen in the photos is going to be an actor in the final and this was a test. Kacie was in clown makeup as she does that often in her work and we wanted to try it. I brought my set items to practice as well and see how they make look and I very pleased with the results. I am trying to get the Gregory Crewdson look mixed in with my own personal ideas and aesthetic style.
