This lesson I had to pick what one of my 3 ideas i was going to do. I picked the one about the girl going out at night and her thinking she was safe but really she wasnt.
After break i started to develope the negitives that i had scratched into to see how the writing came out. At first i didnt notice i had the negitive the wrong way round so all the writing was comming out backwards but i just thought that it wasnt neat enough to read but then Emily said why is it backwards and thats when i noticed. I then tryed it the right way round and it was readable. On my final idea i will try to to the writing alot neater and easyer to read but its hard becasue it is so small. I did a couple of test strips to show my progress and then did a final copy showing the writing the right way round and with the exposure okkay. After lunch i started to devople the way i was going to mount my idea and i knew that i wanted a grave stone in it beacuse that represents her being dead and then i thought how the put flowers on graves and how a rose looked pretty but then its thorns can hurt you like her thinking she was safe but really she wasnt then Sir showed me a poem about a rose and how it looked nice on the outside but there was a worm in the middle and it was eating it and killing it but it still looked pretty on the outside. I thought this fitted in with my idea aswell and i would paint the poem onto my grave stone like they have writing on the grave stone and that is the story behind how i got my final idea. In the last lesson i started to make my grave stone this was alot harder than i thought becasue the chicken wire was hard to cut and we couldnt work out the shape properly but in the end we decided that not all gravestones look perfect because they are old and crumbling so I quickly modrocked it before the end of the day.
Next week i will take my pictures on film and get the film developed and then start to make my rose.
