Nearly finished the sequence of photos.
I've had to rework the entire project to include a mixture of footprints and silhouette soldiers. So the aim is to really show Wrights Hill is different contexts while retaining that sense of this is the past and present combined.
I've got a pseudo storyboard which I'll upload tomorrow as I want to finish up this set.
I'll be printing these out on canvas which I'll get done tomorrow and hopefully have it ready in time for Thursday.
Here's a reworked image that includes some footprints
Some details about the image.
Grayscale
Footprints "walking towards the light"
Reason for this is I wanted to give a sense that this was ultimately the questionable "fate" that awaited us during the time period where Wrights Hill was used to defend Wellington from oncoming threats.
As for the whole photoset I've really taken to giving each photo a sense of individuality. So there will be a mixture of colour tones.
For example.
The natural colours have been darkens down to give more of a sense of "darkness" and a military feel. This was the base of operations the hub for all the work that the soldiers did. It only made sense to portray this in that manner.
This photo is a good example of using silhouetted soldiers. This is set in the infinity tunnel which was originally going to have footprints however it felt empty which is the reason why this photo in particular has people in it. lots of blacks mixed in with the warm glow of the ceiling lights.
Death and destruction await us all. The red floor was actually done not by photoshop but by the natural light from what appeared to be a warning light. This is another example of using footprints.
I'm still working on the final photo which oddly enough is the second to last in the set. These photos that I've uploaded are still work in progress but once it is all finalised I will upload the full and proper set.
