Getting hurt in the name of film
ProfileGalleryPrintsFavesJournal

A lot to update on

Journal Entry: Tue Dec 1, 2009, 2:51 PM
Where have I been?

Well let's see. I was in Sixth Form, then I did my A-levels and left. I floundered around the country a bit doing photography, short films and writing some stuff. Got into University (De Montfort in Leicester: [link]) and have been living here since late September!

What have I been doing?

Very little of my 'normal' photography, but a lot of stuff to do with the film I've written, and am working on directing and shooting over the next few months. You can see some of this work below (available for purchase to help fund the project)







What am I going to be doing?

Mostly my university's work (which does include a lot of photography as I am doing Media Production BSc). So look out for that.

That's really all for now. Catch you next time

Ta-ta for now :)

Some of my work:

Photography Update:
I have finished updating my more popular pieces with new frames, and have tweaked the colouring on a majority of my work so it has a more appropriate feel to the work.

I've uploaded a new, rather impromptu, photoshoot with Bryony Blackler called 'Angelic' and can be found here: [link] . We are both quite proud of some of these pieces, so critique is welcomed and encouraged as always.

I have another studio shoots coming up on the 20th December.

Life Update
I have been given an unconditional offer by the University of Lincoln for entry into the Media Production course in 2009. I've received several awards for my media work from my school and from the county. Other things which are not so fun have happened as well, but I am coping with them.

Updating my photographs

I've been going through my photographs updating them with set borders and tweaking the colours / lighting on them as many have been straight from the reel, so to speak, and needed enhancing.

I'm not making these changes so they are sent to my deviantWatches (to prevent their inboxes becoming full of deviations they've already seen), but I do encourage you to go through my gallery and perhaps revisit some pieces you have already looked as for their changes.

It is quite obvious where I am upto at the moment given the borders stop about half way through the featured page.

Hope you enjoy my changes.

Photography Update:
I have recently completed and uploaded my work with Miss Alexandra Izzard [Triple-Vision] which can be found here [link] . I have also begun to upload my studio shoot 'Colours' to my gallery. It can be found here [link] (Warning: Contains mature content of a mildly sexual nature).

I have another studio shoots coming up on the 20th December and an outdoors evening shoots in December during the full moon / Luna Perege. Should be quite interesting to shoot.

Life Update
My website is nearly finished and will hopefully be uploaded soon for your viewing pleasure.

I recently received a lovely print from rtil which is taking pride of place on my wall, along with my various other prints works.

Photography Update:
I have two shoots coming up at the end of this month on the 27th and the 28th. One is focusing on a bit of a 'horror' theme in preparation for Halloween so look out for that!

I was recently accepted as a photographer by Enticing Glitterati Photography/Modelling agency. You can find their dA here [link] and their website here [link] .

They are wonderful people, models, make-up-artists and photographers alike, so be sure to check out their gallery.

Life Update
All seems to be going well at the moment. Looking forward to a break from sixth form at the end of the month.

Car went in for the ol' MOT yesterday and needs a new CB Gate (a part whih they can't get until Monday) so its out of action for now.
