the photoshoot...

During the half term, i did a photshoot which involved me dressing up my friends.
one of my friends dressed up as Gene Simmons, which involved me backcombing hair and using black and white facepaints and eyeliner. When taking the pictures, I used different angles. I used really close head shots which because there is little light, looks intimidating. I have also done a few pictures with her hands in the shot.
Another one of my friends dressed up as Marilyn Monroe, so I used bright red lipstick, false eyelashes and a beauty spot. I once again used different angles, and got her to use different poses, including marilyn's legendary pout.
Another friend dressed up as Amy Winehouse, with the big beehive hair, the big eyeliner flicks and the 'skanky' style clothing. I am undecided whether to use these images, as she is not as easily recognisable as the other two.
Finally, another friend dressed up as Geri Halliwell, in the famous union jack dress, knee high platform boots, middle parting.

These four iconic musicians will help me to represent icons through time, and how there is very little individuality nowadays.
