Because I would like to do editorial photography when I have completed my degree, I thought it best to find a selection of client briefs to work from, as this would be the way I would be working more or less in industry.
I will source briefs from various locations. I will collect a few competition briefs that interest me, and I will contact fashion magazines; particularly photography focused ones such as Pop and Dazed and Confused, to see if they could possibly send me examples of briefs that they have given their photographers. I will also contact fashion houses and request the same.
Another idea is to find some local fashion designers, possibly students, with their own up and coming line, and ask them if they would be interested in me shooting some of their work, free of charge. If they use my work... that would be a Brucey Bonus!
I plan on working on a few small briefs before Easter, and then focusing on a self directed, or maybe a real client brief (like the local fashion designer ones)after Easter, and then using this work as my exhibition pieces.
The idea is that the smaller briefs will give me some practice, before the final piece, and help me develop ideas.
