I think I achieved what I set out to do. I created a project based on my friends growing up.
The project, on the whole, went well - my subjects were cooperative in lending me their old photographs and letting me scan them, also all the shoots and other photographs I needed to take were all done by half-term. There have been small, more difficult things, such as the book/graphic output section, were I got a little confused and made a scrap book - printing photos out so I could glue them in - before being told that the graphic output had to be computer based. The book/leaflet should be finished this week - it just needs printing, and the original scrapbook will still be included in the exhibition, all that is left to add is some explanatory notes for some of the pictures by my subjects.
I feel I should have taken a little more care over the studying photographs while I was taking them. Some of them look rather rushed - Ruths' in particular. I should have thought a little longer about the position and lighting before taking many of the photos. The studio photos went fantastically, though.
The exhibition space looks great - aside from gap along the top, due to my height, the room is successfully painted - all that's left is to scrub off the emulsion on the work top.
