Photo "words" activity

In the lesson my group took a number of pictures to show very simple images can evoke a variety of different moods and feelings. However, I have only chosen a few images to talk about, these are Claustrophobic, City, Depression and Hang.

This picture is showing the word Claustrophobic. Our group decided to have a girl in a small corner of a building looking down on the road below. However, we chose for the image to be looking down on the girl to show the amount of space given.







This is showing the word "city". However this is showing a certain mood because you can see the dark grey sky as well as the fog you can see towards the back of the image. I think the picture evokes the word city because you can see the cities skyline but it is also showing it is a bit mysterious as you cannot see all of it due to the fog. We used an established shot to get a sense of location but the picture is also suggesting the sub-genre which will be based on a political story.






This picture is evoking the word "depression". Here you can see a girl crouching on the floor to show she is vulnerable but you can also tell she is depressed because she has a needle at her wrists resulting in the depression.







Here, in this picture you are able to tell this picture is evoking the word "hang" we have chosen to use a girl hanging herself off a door with her scarf. The girl's hair is covering her face so you are un-able to see the emotions on her face
