PORTRAIT: Capture a compelling portrait of a person that tells a story about the subject. Use lighting, make-up, costume and environment to enhance the narrative
MINIMALISM: Embrace simplicity and negative space to send a message (story, emotion, feeling or idea) about the subject of your choice. Focus on a single subject with minimal distractions. Consider the role played by line, colour, texture and form in your design.
RURAL LIFE: Capture an image that gives some insight into the essence of rural living, showcasing landscapes, agriculture, and the connection between people and the land
CHIAROSCUSO (tenebrism): Use the interplay of strong light and shadow to create dramatic, high-contrast images in the style of da Vinci, Caravaggio or Rembrandt. Perhaps use inner city or rural opportunities to display form and texture with strong lighting.
EMOTIONS IN MOTION: Capture the emotion displayed by humans or animals in motion. Opportunities may include performance art, sports action, or simple everyday tasks like hurrying to make an appointment.
LONG EXPOSURE: Experiment with long exposure time to create dreamy, motion-blurred effects in your images. Try some landscapes on a cloudy day, or the restless sea along a rocky shore.
