- I want to make my final piece photography as opposed to moving image. Photography seems more apt for ‘spectacle‘ in terms of forms of media. I will investigate and research this later.
- I want my photo to be obviously staged; reminding the audience they are viewing a purposely constructed piece, will hopefully make them question what they see, forcing them to evaluate/analyse my message.
- I want to use women as a spectacle here, I will be conforming to Laura Mulvey’s theory of the ‘Male Gaze’ to make the woman/women appear fetishistic or voyeuristic from the male perspective.
- I want my piece to have a sense of privacy to have a sense of privacy about it, like the audience is witnessing something secret. This could evoke feelings of curiosity or mischief. I like the idea of staging the camera through a crack in the doorway.
- I want to use media inside my photograph somehow but not to be the focus. The audience will be forced to think about media control. The spectacle could be the audience.
