Project Proposal

My idea for this assignment is to take images of a factory that my dad works in. Nestlé.

 At the moment my ideas has not really changed.
I am going to go to the street that he works on and take images of the street to start and then hope to get inside.
 If I cant get in there is also construction work going on outside of the factory because they are making the street wider so that the delivery lorries can pass through.

My target audience would be probably be to a magazine or Gallery,
I am going to document this project and show the different aspects of working there.


I am influenced by Thomas Struth, I really take to his images because of the way that they look, they look old and the colours of the images looks slightly green which give a sense of age and a great amount of composition in them.

The equipment i will require is a Canon 1100D.
I will photograph this landscape wise and portrait wise. When I take images of the street it shall be portrait wise because it instantly makes the street look longer which gives great depth.

When i get to the sight, there might not be enough room to take photos of the area.
If i stand away away then i could get the image but then theres the main road so there would always be cars passing by.
   I think to overcome this would be that i should take the images when the train barrier is down because on that road is a level crossing.
To get the images I would like I should wait until the barrier is down to gain full advantage of an empty road.

There will be many health and safety restrictions when I go to the shoot,  the road that I will be crossing to get to the road where the factory is will have a main busy road on it, there is also current construction work going on during the day there so I may be asked to stand far away whilst they work.

Through the factory I may be asked to wear overalls as there may be contaminent materials they use in the air like dust, I may be required to wear goggles.

If my plan backfires then I shall hopefully just take the images of the people constructing the street. if not I shall take pictures of the factory as close as I can.
