This was my final assignment for photography class last term which i submitted, featuring one of our lovely babi gang, Rachel!
THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH RACHEL for giving us your time and effort to make our shoot a success. thank you also my fellow group members, rowan for lending us her hair pins, and also to adobe for creating that program called photoshop.
it was a long day, starting at 5 am, with us making our way all the way to taman melawati, dealing with make up and hair, people, and also trying not to feel self conscious with the old man doing tai chi in one corner, and the other bunch of housewives who were doin tai chi and line dancing while we ran around taking photos. it was hectic cos we were all sharing one model in our group of six while having to produce one set of shots each. (it's an individual output, but group preparation).
our idea came from trying to use a "modern geisha" concept, and also the fact that her dress is actually just made up of ONE piece of black cloth 6 meters long, which was not cut or sewn, just pinned and clipped on her. The photos were taken with slide film on a regular slr camera (nikon F110), the slides were then scanned , digitised, and texturized and such in a PC.
