Final Images - 'Last'




These images show how we presented our photo's in the crit. I felt we put alot of effort into the overall presentation of the work in a recreation of an office desk.

One of the things I wish we'd done now is print an A2 size version of our three photos' but hey, I guess we got carried away in the whole police desk presentation. The photo's themselves leave alot to the imagination when relating them to the last hiding place of our chosen criminals;

- Archibald Hall - Lavatory (then escaped through the window)
- Ted Bundy - Volkswagen beetle
- Raoul Moat - Storm Drains

The lighting technique we pursued feels a lot more controlled in these images opposed to our previous use in the woods and the basement. Purely down to the decision made not to create too many distracting light trails or obvious patterns.




Great project all in all and an even better oppurtunity to work with people I have never worked with before. Thanks to Dohee and Karina.

Buckfast Wine

So for the North South divide, myself and the group decided on the interesting story that surrounds a Tonic Wine called Buckfast...

Made by Benedictine Monks in Buckfast Abbey, located in Devon. This fortified wine has an alcoholic content of 15% and drop for drop has more caffeine in it than Red Bull. Pretty staggering and unheard of for most of the youth in the South. If you were to travel all the way up to Glasgow you'd find a large following who almost religiously drink Buckfast.

Combining these two contrasting truths we planned and presented an initiation for Northerners into 'the Buckfast society.' I played a minister of the Church and believe me, my throat was fooked after this...
