Mind maps

Mind maps

I have created 2 mind maps to record my ideas for component 2. One of the mind maps is for juxtaposition and the other is for objects in space. I have chosen juxtaposition for my work but I created a mind map for objects in space so that I could understand what other questions are like and what kind of ideas I will need for it. I have developed the mind maps for juxtaposition more than the other one as this is the topic I will be photographing.

Objects in space

This mind map shows the basic ideas that I came up with for capturing objects in space. I had researched the suggested photographers to gather ideas and then added my ideas to the mind map. For example, the idea for capturing a glass of water was based on the research of a photographer where I found a similar picture and thought that I could interpret this in my own work.

Juxtaposition

This mind map shows more ideas that have been expanded compared to the first mind map. I researched the given photographers along with other juxtaposition photographers to get some ideas for the mind map which I listed separately. I then put them into four categories - things, time, people and food and drink. For each juxtaposition duo that I had, I would go into further detail to suggest how I might capture this. For example, for life and death (people), I wrote the ideas 'capture skeleton next to a person' and 'child standing next to a grave', given that I would be able to have access to these things. After creating this mind map, I have made the decision to focus on the category of people as a lot of juxtaposition photographers that I have researched portray this focus too.
