Visual Storytelling | Ideas Development

Updated: Dec 2, 2019

After doing my research, I came up with 3 ideas that I will narrow down as I think about the ideas more.


Idea 1

The first idea I have thought of is an idea to do with the Mafia. This idea will involve an execution of one of the mafia members. The way I will portray this is that the lighting will be very dull, just showing silhouettes, I will use a toy gun and I will use those objects and props to be able to create that story.


So for this idea, I actually didn't have any research for this, this idea just popped into my head when I was thinking. Personally, I feel like this idea could potentially work but it might be took big of a budget as I would have to get the toy gun, the costumes etc etc.


Idea 2

My second idea is the wartime idea. This idea is an idea im planning to do with world war 2. I originally thought of doing a Dunkirk situation, where I could demonstrate in summary the Dunkirk story. It would most likely be used for multiple image rather than single image. Personally I feel like this would be a great idea as it would allow me to experiment with using wartime props. However, this is also a problem as this would also be a big budget for me so that's another problem.


In terms of research, I got this from my analysis of Dunkirk. I thought this would be great as it would also bring a historical aspect into it and would also allow the photos to convey more emotion.





Idea 3

My third idea is to do something based off the purge. This idea will follow a structure similar to idea 2 in the sense that if single, it will be an execution scenario, however if multiple, I will do a kidnapping scenario if I choose it for multiple image. The reason I thought of this is because I personally love the purge as a series and I believe I can incorporate that passion into the single or multiple image.


As far as research goes, I actually researched the purge for my research and I wanted to include it as an idea as i'd be able to experiment with costumes, masks etc. However, a problem again is budget and what I can afford at the time.





In terms of picking an idea. For the multi image, I have decided for the purge idea as I feel like it would be most creative and I would also be able to experiment and try different things out with making the scene dark etc.


For the single image, I am picking the mafia idea, this will be a good idea to work with as it will be practical and will be fun to work with in terms of doing silhouettes.
