Still Life Project

For this project, I am going to try to capture images of both healthy foods and unhealthy foods. In studio, I will try to capture interesting images of unhealthy foods. For this, I will use foods like chips, candy, and food like cupcakes. With the chips, for example, I will try to organize them in an interesting pattern. I will use the black background and bright lighting to help make the food pop, or, I will use dark lighting in order to help further convey the feeling of unhealthiness. Out of studio, I am going to try to capture images of healthy foods. To do this, I will use different types of fruits, such as watermelon, strawberries, or bananas, or I will use salads. With the watermelon, for example, I am going to chop it up, put it in a clear bowl, and try to find a place that has nice bright lighting with a lake or some other body of water behind it. The bright lighting will help convey the happiness some one feels when they do eat healthy. I am not basing my project on any photographer's ideas.
