I had a great time on Monday at the Midlands Art Centre photographing a burlesque model.
My goal was to create two distinct series of images. The first, shown here, was deliberately disorientating - an attempt to capture mysterious movements and moments in time.
The effect was achieved by a combination of over-exposure and use of the in-camera multi-image function. I added a silver-tone treatment in post-production to give the pictures a filmic feel in keeping with the mood of the series.
Finally, a number of the images contained vestiges of the white backdrop against which the model was shot. Rather than cropping them out or using a retouching tool I made a conscious decision to leave the imperfections as they were, again to create a filmic feel.
