10. Update

I spoke with Simon Popple about my project and one area we identified as an issue was the editing stage after the shoot, where i edit in the images of the clock and tie them to my dancer with the chain. 

Issues:

1. Editing the chain to make it look bulky and thick so its wrapped around a part of her body was risky without trailing it and making it look effective - risk it looking cheap and cliche.

2. I took my pocket watch images separately and in order to match the lighting would be difficult in photoshop with the images of my dance in the studio and then the images i took in my flat.

3. I can risk over doing it in photoshop like last year and making my images look grainy - it is a long winded process editing that much of an image and could make the image look cheap.

Solution:

1. Photograph my dancer in front of a green screen and key in the images of my pocket watch.

2. My pocket watch images will still be of a different lighting so i will retake those at the start of the slot in the TV studio before my dancer arrives. This way i can match my lighting with the technician.

3. I can play around more subtly in photoshop to drag out colours and flatten the colour of the skin tones.
