Mid project evaluation

I think that so far I have been quite satisfied with the way the shoots have gone. I have liked being different and crazy with some of the shoots and I've liked exploring how creative I really
am in terms of photography and relating to Mark Jenkins. I've liked exploring different angles, movements speeds of shots because it was not something that I had considered for my unit 2 and it is new to me in terms of my photography. I have had some good previous ideas but I 
am finding it hard to figure out what to do for some of my shoots. I want each shoot to be 
different to the previous and it is quite hard to think of good shoot ideas. I think that I am overthinking the Mark Jenkins a bit and that's why I'm finding it hard.  I have made a mistake when trying to shoot sktaters for my London shoot. I realised this later on and wrote about it
in my work diary. I sorted out the mistake by doing a shoot based on making videos of skaters perfoming tricks at different speeds and using freeze frames so I corrected the error 
and was able to do a shoot to help myself out. I think that I struggle the most with coming up
with the ideas for the shoots because Mark Jenkins does individual photographs whereas I 
tend to do a whole shoot focused on one or two things so I have to think of something that will give me good opportunities.

I think I had made good progress with my personal project as I have had some good shoots 
and I am trying to be move creative and professional as a photographer. I think in order for my personal project to progress, I need to spend some time thinking about each individual shoot
so that I am not let to the last minute for a shoot. This would help me massively and expand
the inspiration for Mark Jenkins. I think that it may contain both moving objects such
as people and still objects because I think these both look good.
