What Worked?
What worked well with this shoot is that it was a new idea to use a mirror to reflect things around my location relating it back to my artist model I used the mirror to show that the model is looking for the next direction of where to go and also looking for a way out as so the mirror is talking to her a telling her how to get out
What didn't, how could this be improved?
What didn't work with this shoot as although it's a new idea and a new artist the idea of my theme still isn't there a It is known to me but probably not to the people viewing my theme and my shoot so I need to get new ideas that help bring my theme together a little bit more.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea?
Explore the idea more that my model is lost by using Maps and burning the maps to show that the direction are not 100% right and at some point my model has to find her own way shown through 2 paths that my model has to make up her mind on what why to go.

What Worked?
What worked with this shoot is that I brought in a new idea with burning a hole in the map and taking photos of the map burning as I needed a new idea to bring my work to life and to be less just a forest which is something that I still need to work on as I am still photographing that same idea over and over again
What didn't, how could this be improved?
What needs to be improved is need to think more about the forest and a little less of the model as there is a lot of the same idea of being with the models in the forest.I need to stop taking some many images of the same idea and photo just take one or two like with the maps there is some many of the same image.Need to move away from the running of the image also.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea?
Next Shoot I need to explore the forest more and texture and things to break things up on my board as there is just so much of the same idea so need to explore the location more without a model.

What Worked?
What worked well with this shoot was I was able to explore more of my location with close up shoots of texture and leaf this shoot it worked better for me to do it in colour than in black and white as in colour relate better to my theme the different colours also bring life to the image and it is easier to be able to tell what the image is when it is in colour.
What didn't, how could this be improved?
I did repeat a lot of similar things that I have done in the past and still do in this shoot but I have improved each time I think with this artist model was more tree but I did a wide range of shoots with the location and trees and also the leaves I need to get a new idea but also similar to what I already have to not go to far away from my theme.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea?
I need more water photos maybe images in water to be able to connect my images together on my folio and also do an idea that I have already done but it relates more to my artist model but also make the idea better.

What Worked?
What worked with this shoot was using water to extend previous ideas that I had already to try and make my idea make sense to the viewers it didn't come out as nice as I would have like it to but it is still useable as it an idea that I would still like to do more of.
What didn't, how could this be improved?
I don't like this shoot that much as there is not a lot of ideas and I poorly did it I think I need a new artist model for my shoot 9 to extend my idea more as this shoot didn't work out.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea?
I need to do more shoot with burning the map an trying to workout how I am going to end my Foilio board so need to have more of a brainstorm to be able to do this but I need more portraiture work which is a new idea that I can bring to the other ideas that I already have
