For the 12 photos for my summer project, I decided to take them in a nearby wooded area where I used to live as this is somewhere where I often spent some of my time. The project brief said to use our mobile phones and mentioned it wished us to think about how cameras/technology development and how accessible taking photos is now, and so this inspired the idea to do it in a 1x1 framing due to the app instagram which is the platform where everybody posts these photos that they have just snapped in the moment.

This movie was definitely a breath of fresh air for me against the persistent cycle of the same blockbuster movies every year that fill the billboards on buses.

If you can catch this movie, I definitely would recommend the watch.
