Jingfeng's proposal for a project that may or may not be made

What will it be?

Rotterdam Syndrome A collective of photos, all about Rotterdam and its suburban places. Using my past and new experience on photography to describe the feeling of living here. Not sure about any specific topic, or just general description. Why do you want to make it?

Why do you want to make it?

Photography is the most familiar media for me, I can use it to make some images about the object places. I may have some personal perspective about this place, there can be some chances to create new images.

How it would be made:

Stages:

1.To get familiar with this city, hang around, look for interesting landscapes. (Every spare days)

2.Find out if there is any certain topics, then decide whether to separate them into different projects.

3.Maybe I can try some new methods like analog, large format.

4.To see if I can edit the photos into an album. (Photobook design, editing)

Notes:

You can describe the style of the photo's you want to make. you can explain your personal motive on why you what to photograph Rotterdam. what is the feeling behind it? Wha do you want to get out of it or achieve with it? Do you want the viewer to get something specific out of it? How will you go about making the photobook? Mention more detailed stages.

What will it be?

Rotterdam Syndrome A collective of photos, all about Rotterdam and its suburban places. Using my past and new experience on photography to describe the feeling of living here. The style of shooting is not decided yet, I prefer to find it out during the process. Not sure about any specific topic, or just general description.

Why do you want to make it?

I may have some personal perspective about this place, because I don’t have much experience living abroad, Rotterdam is the first foreign city I will live for a long time, I want to find some connection between it and myself, through my eyes and paces. Then maybe I can know myself and the city better, and the most important part, similar with my previous works, is to look at the gap of modernity here, and to express my perception about it through images.

How it would be made:

Stages:

1.To get familiar with this city, hang around, look for interesting landscapes and communities. (Every spare days)

2.Find out if there is any certain topics I interested in, then decide whether to separate them into different projects.

3.Maybe I can try some new methods like analog, large format during the process.

4.See if I can edit the photos into an album, but the outcome depends on the process of shooting. (Photobook design, editing)
