Potential Front Print Production Panel

In one of my recent blog posts I scanned in a sketch for the idea of a closed down shop being use as one of the panels for my print production. Moreover, today I went out to find suitable location for this, photographing different places that in my eyes represented broken Britain and class inequality; I found a shop in Anglia Square called "Now-N-Then" that caught my attention particularly because of the graffitied shutters and also the name. Therefore, I waited in-front of this shop taking pictures of passers by that walked in front of it, hoping to capture someone that perhaps further helped enhance the visual

idea of broken Britain that was already being enforced by the state of the shop. After many failed attempts at photographing a few people walking past, a man and his dog came across the street as I took a photograph. Luckily, he is looking straight at the camera which seems to show his addressing of the viewer, perhaps supporting the idea of the album name "We Must Speak", as if the man in the photograph is saying "you must do something to make a change!"; reminding me a lot of the propaganda posters during the war. Funnily enough, after I took the photo the man stuck two fingers up at me, which I'm ashamed I missed capturing as that have been an even bigger connotation of class in-equality.

Furthermore, I have roughly edited the image to get it album cover size and ensured colours were corrected as well as making certain that central focus is drawn to the man by darkening the corners of the image.
