This week was packed, with some Research for year long project, reviewing our feedback from Semester 1, Riso Printing (next post) and a group crit that took up a long time but yielded some great information.
This Friday saw us first hit up the web resources for some Research on our year long project and essays, then a trip to the Print Hub to learn about Riso Printing and finally a great chat with my Academic Coach Lauren. A busy day!!
After discussing ideas for my year long project with Niki, I developed a concept around my Town Council’s recent project to replace 30 bus shelters. Sounds enthralling, no?
At the end of last year, Alice gave us a task to create an A3 size board containing references, text, quotes and examples of images that we were interested in related to our year-long project.
My year long project so far has been a proper mixed bag, some print destruction, some negative distressing, some architecture, some portraiture so I put three boards together using my computer and PowerPoint along with the graphics table so I could scrawl directly onto the digital page.
Alice gave us a challenge to plan a shoot and carry it out using inspiration from the surrealism lecture on Friday. See what I got up to with my wardrobe door.
This week is a review week of Semester One and all the work we’ve created up until this point. What do I need to improve upon, what can I do next to try different things? See what Alice and I talked about.
For this semester an Exhibition Review is required, here is my review of the excellent Chris Killip Retrospective in The Photographers Gallery London.
Choose an approach from Szarkowski’s The Photographer’s Eye and make five images based on it. Cue a trip around a wet town centre.

When you’ve been a good boy at work, sometimes people give you an award! I used mine on a Holga Pinhole camera, see the results of my early usage here..
What Colour Are Emotions? I don’t really know but lets try and figure it out, then take a picture to represent it and myself.
Heat wave in August 2022, what can you do on a really sunny day? Cut the grass, sit and have a beer on the decking, fill the paddling pool, go on hols or try a Cyanotype in the bright sunshine?
This time it’s Studio Portraiture using the brief of “Fictions Of The Self” where we were to find a portrait painting and reimagine it using photography in the university’s ample studios.
After finalising my selections for Colour and Black and White, it was time to choose the final images for the Digital Photography submission.
t’s been two weeks since I finally finished all of my work for the first module of my BA Hons Degree in Photography at the University Of Wolverhampton and I’m about to share what I submitted for each of the four sub-modules; Colour Film Photography, Black and White Film Photography, Digital Photography and Studio Photography.
I’ll share the submitted works in the order we completed them throughout a number of workshops for each. The first being Colour Film Photography.
Last studio workshop of the semester and it saw us share our images with each other and the Digital module team, whilst they showed us their images of the year 2100.
It’s studio time again and this week it was recreating famous paintings. My chosen image was a painting of an artist’s self portrait..
What will market traders in Bilston Market look like in the year 2100? This post is how I approached the task for my Digital Photography module.
What will a Bilston Market Tailor’s Stall look like in the year 2100, probably not much different. Check out my image of the future.
Choosing how to make photos of Bilston, Wolverhampton and Birmingham look like they’re taken in 2100. Ideas are harder to come by than I thought..
