Evaluation

For this task I had to choose a submission that I was interested in and create a submission whether I would submit the work or not.  I considered the work that I have been developing lately and where my interests lie. I looked at the Re-title website to see if there were any open calls that I liked for my work. I didn’t find any, so I went to a website that I had submitted work to before. I found one that I liked and started to develop my submission for that one. I went to the Outdoor Photography website and chose the Moment With Nature submission. I chose one of my recent Dartmoor Pony photos and developed the required synopsis as I did submit my work. I hope that my work is published in the magazine as it would get my name out there and I would win some money.

The project blindsided us and I would have liked warning that we were getting a mini project in the first week back as I could have planned my time better and planned for any needed shoots. Despite this I feel that I did quite well with the project as I was able to find an open submission that I liked for my work. I would have liked more time, so I could have gone back on Dartmoor and had a shoot for new images. Fortunately, the submission was written to allow me to choose images I had already shot rather than needing to go out and shoot again. The image that I selected fit both the submission brief and my preferred photographic practice. It also fit with the research that I have been doing for my dissertation and for what I am planning for my final major project.
