Street photography

We have started to look at street photography. This was a big part of photography in new york 60's and 70's. It captured the heart of the city. Unfortunately we can't do this kind of photography anymore as we have problems and issues like paedophilia, privacy and terrorism. Its not just streets its all public places.

This is where I found information about street photography.

Here are six photos that I think are really similar. They all show the streets in a lonely way. They all use black and white imagery to show this.

Introduction / Brief

We are now starting our new project which is called interactaction. In this we will be interacting with a client to make a product which they choose. It can be any medium: Film, photography, Graphics depending on which client you choose.
There is a selection of clients to choose from but you can find your own if you wish.
We have until the summer to complete this product and pitch it to the client.

This project is all about cultural heritage in cornwall.
Here I think I have been a self manager because I have to plan what product I am going to make and which client I want to choose. I am also being a team worker as I am working with someone to do this project.
