I have been asked by my tutor to do some images of students in different areas of the college. These are the courses I will be photographing.
Performing Arts
This image was taken to advertise Bridgwater College. The image has been taken using artificial theatre light, perhaps the group were in a rehearsal at the time and a photographer has taken a picture using the normal light the group will be working in. It advertises the group well, if the college is advertising to potential students about the course, there is nothing better than showing what the group do on a regular basis. I think 'staging' has been minimised, the group seem genuinely working.
Music
Both these images seem to have been taken from perhaps an audience's balcony, using the lights in the theatre (not artificial photographic light). They seem to be taken using a long lens, perhaps a 200mm lens. In the first image, focus has been given to the man playing the xylophone. In the second image, the focus is on the three girls in at the front.
