The Meat Counter

Cinematic.

Modeling and stlying by me, photography by Josie Stock.

Wanted to create a kind of cinematic vibe, as some sort of practise/experimentation for our current group uni project, afte not having much experience in this narrative and style of photography. Using inspiration from the work of Gregory Crewdson and Philip-Loca diCorcia we created are own take on a 'film-still-esque' genre.

We wanted to set up a constructed scene, where you as the onlooker are not sure how to best interpert the scenario, you might ask yourself whats happening? Is the subject steadying herself on the wall as she awkardly takes a picture back at you, or is she dancing? is she miming? The way her expression looks directly at you in one shot, but not any of the others and the way she is only half dressed in her outfit is intended to create some kind of curiosity and a sense of spontaneity.

again here, we wanted to try and achieve the same cinamatic effect, shots that look like they have been plucked from a movie on pause.
