While doing this project (Self Portriat) i descovered that what really resembles me is when i take people and make them my doll and photograph them. I like being able to see the entire time what im taking a picture of and being able to control how the picture will look. I know that you are suppose to do something that resembles yourself but in a strange weird way taking pictures of others and making them do what i want and wear what i want is what resembles me, i like to take control. I did take some pictures of myself but it wasn't easy making sure everything was in focus, which i wanted. I also took some pictures of objects that resemble me - bathing suit in water (i am a swimmer), M&M's (the only chocolate i love), and cheerios (i really like cherrios ha.)
I think I also thought to much about this. When i took the pictures of the objects and myself i felt like it was no where near how good my work can get. I was trying to grasp in the picture of me in the dress and wearing my chucks, that i am a girlie girlie but i also like to be boyish. I am not a big fan of those photos.
Thats about all i have to say. Any question ask me! :-)
