When I work on photo shoots or create something new, even for fashion, I try and come with a concept and back story. The reason for this is to make it easier to understand. Same principle applies for period drama. I spent hours writing up a piece once for a client that was a fraction of what was required just as a demo. Research is the key element to your work. I know there are TV shows and films on all the decades and historical periods. However its still a good idea to go to the library, scour the internet and really put your time into it. Over the next few weeks I will be sitting at the computer and editing my own work and putting context to the new images, already planning around the models I have, replanning the designs for a film project and then working on some fashion ideas for a smaller submission.
