For this shoot, I will being using the same surveillance idea and adding my own twist to it. I am going to complete this shoot in town during lunch time when it will be busiest. My aim is to capture people off guard as they are walking through town. When completing this shoot, the images will further suggest the idea of always being watched.
The equipment I will need during this shoot will be my camera (Nikon D810) and a tripod. I am going to set my camera up to continuously shoot every 5 seconds or so. The reason I am doing this instead of taking the images myself is because I do not want my subjects to feel uncomfortable or like they should pose for these images. Although my camera being there on a tripod may intimidate some people into posing, I hope that most people do not take much notice and carry on like they usually would.
This shoot is going to be done outside so I will use a low ISO and as I want the images to be sharp and clear I will use a high shutter speed. If possible I may even try and get a shutter release remote so I can take the images manually but without touching my camera; this is so I don't waste shots on a blank canvas.
The obstacles I may face during this shoot is the weather may not enable me to go outside and shoot. Also people may realise that I am taking images of them and they may not appreciate this, however, if this does happen, I will simply delete in. Another obstacle that I may face is the fact that a person may notice that I'm taking images so they might pose which is not the results that I would like. This shoot will help improve my project because it is just reiterating the idea that nobody can have a private life due to the amount of camera and CCTV that is around nowadays.
