Over the past year, I have tried to become far more serious and professional; creating this blog, my Facebook page and working on Purple Port, Model Mayhem, DeviantArt and Flickr accounts, to become more commercial and professional. I have sought out professional models to work with, photographers to work with and tried to become more motivated and passion. So now I am thinking of what I want to do next year.
I want to develop my Costumes and Comics series and make so really headway with that project; I am aiming to get at least 10 of the best pictures I can get done. I am hoping to do a Superman (Action Comics), Batman (Detective Comics), Wonder Woman, The Flash, Supergirl, Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Robin (Batman and Robin) and since I have already done Batgirl, Harley Quinn and Raven (Teen Titans) I think this might be a good target. I might also be able to shoot The Riddler, The Penguin and Bane with a production company, and could expand the series to Marvel and shoot Iron Man, War Machine and Ghost Rider with the same company. I also want to expand this and do some candid shoots with these cosplayers; doing something mundane but in costume; Superman reading a paper, Batman waiting for the bus or Wonder Woman getting a coffee. I am also interested to do some more shoots with Squishy Pandas (Raven and Windrunner), especially as they aim to expand thier cosplay wardrobe. I will also hopefully be working with Little Rascal's Costumes; they have a collection including Rose (Titanic), Catwoman, Poison Ivy, Zatanna, Black Canary and Little Red Riding Hood; some of which Fran might be modelling. They also made Macara's Little Mermaid costume.
I also really want to some shoots inspired by Greek Mythology; either setting up location shoots inspired by artwork or modern day versions of the myths OR studio shoots involving make-up and PhotoShop to create images inspired by the myths. I have any ideas for this ranging from using snakes for a Medusa shoot, editing a sword over Damocles' head and creating the two-faced Janus in the studio and shooting Aphrodite or Andromeda in front of a stormy sea, have Narcissus stare at his reflection in a local park or have Hercules stride across the countryside. Currently I am research artwork, statues and descriptions and recruiting models, MUA's and hairstylists. Personally I am looking forward to recreating Narcissus and Echo.
I also really want to kick start my Album Covers project, which i will be shooting with my mate Adam. Our plan is to recreate some Album, Film, Book and Game Covers in our studio and on location, using models similar to the models in the original artwork but putting our own spin on the images.
I am also looking forward to experimenting with different lighting techniques and shooting ideas; showing emotion and stories. I am also looking forward to experimenting with other genres of photography such as Lingerie and Still Life shoots, I am also looking forward to shooting some promo images for local singers and bands. And fingers-crossed I might even get hired for a few weddings this year.
I am also aiming to by a wide-angle (18-24mm) lens and a speed light by the New Year. So fingers crossed and wish me look, and thank you for all your support.
