identity
In psychology and sociology, identity is a person's conception and expression of their own and others' individuality or group affiliations.
During this project I will explore the themes of identity to express and aim to express these elements through a variety of photographic techniques.

using lighting to create mood.
rankin
Rankin is a photographer who takes photos of celebrities like Noel Gallagher and Daniel Craig ETC in photo-shoots world wide. the style he usually uses is black and white pictures the reason l like this is because it makes the person stand out.
this is my favourite because I like the staging of the cat and the guy and I like the lighting I like how it reflects only on his face and the cat. Also I like how the black and white effects make the cat and his hat blend into the background.

refining my recreation of a Rankin photograph
Finally I adjusted the contrast to make the background darker and make the highlights of the face stand out.
Rankin's photographs using cut out paper.
This is my own version of Rankin's style.
Andy Warhol
Andy Warhol was an American artist who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art.
This is some of his work. The thing I like about these is the range of different colours he uses.
This is a piece I done in the style of Andy Warhol.
akatre
Akatre is a French graphic design studio formed by Valentin Abad, Julien Dhivert and Sebastien Riveron. The trio works in a variety of fields including typography, graphic design, photography and video.
here are a few picture from akatre the thing I like most is the positioning of the objects and also the backgrounds he uses to make the objects blend in
photos of background in the style of AKATRE
This is my own shot at making a Akatre photo what I done was cropped out the persons face and put a background onto Photoshop then put his face on the background. The things I like about these images is the way the persons face is camouflaged in to the background. I could have improved on my cropping because I missed out some things on the face.
Barbara Kruger
Barbara Kruger is an American photographer who likes to take pictures using text. The main think I like about her images is the placement of the text and the identity pictures.
I used barak Obama for my own version of using text in photography.

edits
The way I edited this is by using the hue and saturation tool to make the image go black and white. I then used the level's and made the black blacker.
