Rebecca Turner - High School - redo


On the surface, my high school experience was amazing.
At the same time, I spent each day in a constant battle with myself. 
We've all hidden something, but when it's everything, it gets exhausting.

Ideas ? Alterations ? Issues ? Thanks .
Yes, it's a wig

Alex Haney- Theme #3 High School

I really didn't want to share this as I'm definitely not done with it, but I'm already late and figured we won't always be able to show our finished product right? I was only able to take three shots on the Branksome property before I was kicked off by security haha. My intention with this photograph is to capture the awkwardness at being gender variant going to an all girls private school. I definitely think I can go further with this concept and introduce more narrative into the situation. I have a few other ideas in my head. I might try either doing a better portrait that is more psychological, or something more staged involving other people.

Amber Hartin - High School

Decided to go with a simple still life consisting of the everyday items used/worn/carried around in high school, or at least at mine anyways. So there it is. I've tried a couple different crops which I will post later, don't know that I'll keep this as a final image but it's all I could muster up for now.

Theme #3: High School - Alycia Kosonic


So my intention was to make the photo blurry and in black and white to show that the memories have begun to fade away from high school, but I'm not too sure how I feel with the outcome of it. Feedback is much appreciated :)
(P.s. It's a really crappy scan, didn't get the chance to use the lab scanners but I will redo asap)

Rebecca Turner - High School

Pretty self explanatory, whether it was our own emotions, or those of someone close to us.
High school was, for me, an amazing four years. But no matter how many great friends and fun events surround you, darkness always exists.

Any advice would be seriously appreciated !
In the mean time I'm going to learn how to write the letter A better...

Lucy Lu - Theme 3: High School


35mm...the scan's a bit fuzzy.

Thinking of high school, we tend to forget about our teachers, whose initial goal seems to be to make our lives difficult. But some really have a huge impact on what type of people we become. It's a tough job. This is Shane Clodd, who was my art teacher, a fantastic sculptor, and an overall cool person. 

But then...I saw this:

This weird dummy has been sitting there for as long as I've been at my high school. I think this can speak a lot about how marginalized and isolated people can feel during that time, it's almost never as glamourous as representations of it.

I like both ideas, but I'm not sure about the aesthetic qualities of the first one; if it's interesting enough. It'd be awesome if you guys could tell me which you like better. Thanks!

Alison Irwin, Theme 3, High School

For my high school shot I wanted to capture what everyone thinks high school is like BEFORE they go into it. We all think of the 80s movies Ferris Bueller or Grease etc. The cliche head cheerleader dates the captain of the football team and "it's the best four years of your life!" (where in reality high school is so far from that, it's full of bull shit drama & everyone's in their own little bubble, am i right?). She's wearing a cheerleading uniform with "her boyfriends" team jacket, bubble gum & scrunchie to complete the teeny bopper look like in those movies. This picture is a little desaturated since it's suppose to look older. Let me know what you think!
