Last Friday (3rd May) me and Vicky decided to carry on with with our projections, so just found an empty room and got going. It's strange how much more relaxed I feel when we're not in "THE STUDIO"! Maybe it's because we don't have a time limit, or maybe it's the lack of intimidating studio lights, but we got so much more done and had loads more fun too. We revisited holding the sheets of acetate in front of the face to layer the image as last time we only used this for Vicky's images. I'm not to keen on this but it was good to try. The main thing I wanted to try was projecting my skin print onto Vicky's skin. I had had this idea for a while. After the my 'distorting the distorted' layerings, I wanted to physically layer my images onto myself or someone else. It turns out Vicky has the same skin condition as me, as do 40% of the population! The skin is made up of layers too so it seemed right to project my college of my own skin, highlighting the condition, on to Vicky's. Vicky has also been looking at layering in her project, with her spanish and english tongue twisters. It was tricky taking the photos with just two people. Luckily I have a remote for my camera which Vicky used, and the camera on a tripod, whilst I shone the torch through the acetate.
