To me the NMA is a treasure trove of the Australia that my generation will never know and that makes it so special. Everything we were and everything we are now is wrapped up in its walls waiting for curious eyes.
These shots will reflect the era our grandmamas and grandads were in their youth and having the time of their lives, the fifties.
These are the initial shot ideas.
- a birds eye view of a classic looking table setting. Red checker table cloth, one round plate with knife, fork, spoon either side. even lighting from both sides with camera movements present.
- For the glassware image i'm going to use Vereco glasses, the ones that come in purple, green, amber and blue. I'll stack them up against a soft box maybe fill some with water, some without but really all i want is the great retro colour that flows through them.
- I'm leaning towards a silver picture frame for the shiny image. I'd love to stack up old photos, books, maybe a small suit case and other time appropriate pieces but have the light on them muted and the spot light heavily on the picture frame.
- The close up image will be based around a small silver earring neatly placed in a pouch, not just floating white. I'll probably use the Hassleblad and extensions for this one, i really want that sharp crisp focus.
