A series of studio experiments started today with Luke, Alkistis and Daz joining a session of two hours where we “played” we space, communication, relationships during the photographic process.

Warming up- opening our perception.

Some years ago, I  attended an inspiring workshop with Katrin McPherson, renown  video-dance maker. One of the exercises she gave to us was to work in groups of three in the following roles: One was the mover/dancer, one was the camera-person and one was the camera-operator. We used this task to explore different ways of looking into/at things. The camera-operator had to manipulate the body and posture of the camera-person offering him/her different perspectives of the action occurring in space. The camera -person had to open/close the eyes only by command of the camera-operator…

Afterwards we  used a task to make some pictures with Tutu’.

TASK

• Create an image where  Tutu’ (a wooden colorful mouse) and someone else interact with each other.
• Use verbal communication to make understandable what kind of atmosphere/feeling you want to create.
• Take a picture when you feel that the image is how you would like to be.
• Just one shot for each situation/image you create.
