When I think to implement this assignment, what I started to think is what should I shoot first and then I hang out in my house. Then I sit down and think about the shot list and I came across with nothing on my list. It took me 3 solid days to get the shot list.
Finally I got the final shot list for 12 photographs. It was night time when I get ready to shot and I could only get night scene of car dashboard. I could not shoot for the rest as it need to be in 24 hrs. So, I have to wait for next morning to get other shots.
I don’t know for my classmates. For me, the first thing I want to do when I wake up is to go for pee. My idea for moring routine is to represent by peeing scene. But I don’t think it’s good idea of shooting me peeing. So, I wait my nephew’s peeing time in the morning. When I took his morning routine, I needed to be ready for timely shot. As my nephew is so young and he was curious for long times what I’m doing with strange things covering infront of my face. So, it took ages to get his morning routine shot. And I only get poor urine flow as in the photo. I also need to hide his face for his right. But yes, I got 12 photographs in the end. There were other unpredicted situation when I shot other photos. But I will tell those when I have chance later. This is all for now. Ciao.
