Research

In order to develop my project further I began to look for inspiration and create some boards on Pinterest. 

The clothing throughout these images is so significant as they make the images very rhythmic and produces a lot of formation.

Looking at these images a little closer I was able to point out how often a shape was produced in one image. 

This repeated element of line and form is something I aimed to emulate in my own work.

Poses

In order to be able to create these dynamic shapes within my photos, I needed to plan how the model would pose. Having looked at a number of different images (which can be seen below) it is apparent that the model could look somewhat awkward (almost like a mannequin) to portray these elements.  

Mario Testino

Testio has produced these two very images which are very high in contrast which helps to add to the structured feel. The shadows also help to create form and line. The models are very rigid in their pose but it works to form structure.
